Effective Levi-Civita Dilaton theory from Metric Affine Dilaton Gravity
نویسنده
چکیده
We show how a Metric Affine theory of Dilaton gravity can be reduced to an effective Riemannian Dilaton gravity model. A simple generalization of the Obukhov-Tucker-Wang theorem to Dilaton gravity is then presented. 04.20.-q, 04.40.-b, 04.50.+h, 04.62.+v [email protected]

O ct 1 99 9 Why do we live in a Riemannian space - time ?
We start from the pure Einstein-Hilbert action S = λ 2 R ⋆ 1 in Metric-Affine-Gravity, with the orthonormal metric g ab = η ab. We get an effective Levi-Civita Dilaton gravity theory in which the Dilaton field is related to the scaling of the gravitational coupling. When the Weyl symmetry is broken the resulting Einstein-Hilbert term is equivalent to the Levi-Civita one, using the projective in...
متن کاملNonmetricity and torsion induced by dilaton gravity in two dimension
We develop a theory in which there are couplings amongst Dirac spinor, dilaton and non-Riemannian gravity and explore the nature of connection-induced dilaton couplings to gravity and Dirac spinor when the theory is reformulated in terms of the Levi-Civita connection. After presenting some exact solutions without spinors, we investigate the minimal spinor couplings to the model and in conclusio...
متن کاملA geometrical action for dilaton gravity
We study the gravitational interaction involving the dilaton and the antisymmetrical Bμν fields that arises in the low-energy limit of string theory. It is shown that such interaction can be derived from a geometrical action principle, with the scalar of curvature of a non-Riemannian, but metric-compatible, connection as the lagrangian, and with a non-parallel volume-element. This action is con...
متن کاملNon-existence of a dilaton gravity action for the exact string black hole
We prove that no local diffeomorphism invariant two-dimensional theory of the metric and the dilaton without higher derivatives can describe the exact string black hole solution found a decade ago by Dijkgraaf, Verlinde and Verlinde. One of the key points in this proof is the concept of dilaton-shift invariance. We present and solve (classically) all dilaton-shift invariant theories of two-dime...
متن کاملA Conformal Affine Toda Model of 2d Black Holes: a Quantum Study of the Evaporation End-point
In this paper we reformulate the dilaton-gravity theory of Callan et al. as a new effective conformal field theory which turns out to be a generalization of the so-called SL2-conformal affine Toda (CAT) theory studied some time ago by Babelon and Bonora. We quantize this model, thus keeping in account the dilaton-gravity quantum effects. We then implement a Renormalization Group analysis to stu...
