Black holes as bubble nucleation sites
Ruth Gregory, Ian G. Moss, Benjamin Withers
We consider the effect of inhomogeneities on the rate of false vacuum decay. Modelling the inhomogeneity by a black hole, we construct explicit Euclidean instantons which describe…

Invariants of the heat equation for non-minimal operators
Ian G. Moss, David J. Toms
A special class of non-minimal operators which are relevant for quantum field theory is introduced. The general form of the heat kernel coefficients of these operators on manifolds…

BRST-invariant boundary conditions and strong ellipticity
Ian G. Moss
The quantisation of gauge theories usually procedes through the introduction of ghost fields and BRST symmetry. In the case of quantum gravity in the presence of boundaries, the BR…
