Effective gravitational action for 2D massive fermions

Abstract

We work out the effective gravitational action for 2D massive Euclidean fermions in a small mass expansion. Besides the leading Liouville action, the order $m^2$ gravitational action contains a piece characteristic of the Mabuchi action, much as for 2D massive scalars, but also several non-local terms involving the Green's functions and Green's functions at coinciding points on the manifold.
