Auxiliary-Field Formalism for Higher-Derivative Boundary CFTs
Gregorio Paci, Sergey N. Solodukhin
We study the conformal field theory defined by the fourth-order operator on four-dimensional manifolds with boundaries, reformulating it through an auxiliary field so that the dyna…
Ambient space and integration of the trace anomaly
Gregorio Paci, Omar Zanusso
We use the ambient space construction, in which spacetime is mapped into a special lightcone of a higher dimensional manifold, to derive the integrable terms of the trace anomaly i…
Euclidean actions and static black hole entropy in teleparallel theories
Iberê Kuntz, Gregorio Paci, Omar Zanusso
It is well-known that the results by Bekenstein, Gibbons and Hawking on the thermodynamics of black holes can be reproduced quite simply in the Euclidean path integral approach to…
Weyl cohomology and the conformal anomaly in the presence of torsion
Gregorio Paci, Omar Zanusso
Using cohomological methods, we identify both trivial and nontrivial contributions to the conformal anomaly in the presence of vectorial torsion in dimensions. In both case…
Substructures of the Weyl group and their physical applications
Riccardo Martini, Gregorio Paci, Dario Sauro +2
We study substructures of the Weyl group of conformal transformations of the metric of (pseudo)Riemannian manifolds. These substructures are identified by differential constraints…
Radiative corrections to the and invariants from torsion fluctuations on maximally symmetric spaces
Riccardo Martini, Gregorio Paci, Dario Sauro
We derive the runnings of the and operators that stem from integrating out quantum torsion fluctuations on a maximally symmetric Euclidean background, while treating the…
Covariant spin-parity decomposition of the Torsion and Path Integrals
Riccardo Martini, Gregorio Paci, Dario Sauro
We propose a functional measure over the torsion tensor. We discuss two completely equivalent choices for the Wheeler-DeWitt supermetric for this field, the first one being based o…
Conformally covariant operators of mixed-symmetry tensors and MAGs
Gregorio Paci, Dario Sauro, Omar Zanusso
We compute conformally covariant actions and operators for tensors with mixed symmetries in arbitrary dimension . Our results complete the classification of conformal actions th…
Quantum fields in teleparallel gravity: renormalization at one-loop
Roberto Casadio, Iberê Kuntz, Gregorio Paci
We consider the quantization of matter fields in a background described by the teleparallel equivalent to general relativity. The presence of local Lorentz and gauge symmetries giv…
