Inducing the Lovelock action
Jan-Peter Boernsen, Anton E. M. van de Ven
We re-analyze a possible ambiguity in the application of dimensional regularization to Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity, arising from the way one treats the Gauss-Bonnet term. It is d…
Three-Loop Yang-Mills beta-Function via the Covariant Background Field Method
J. -P. Boernsen, Anton E. M. van de Ven
We demonstrate the effectivity of the covariant background field method by means of an explicit calculation of the 3-loop beta-function for a pure Yang-Mills theory. To maintain ma…
A Closed Formula for the Riemann Normal Coordinate Expansion
Uwe Mueller, Christian Schubert, Anton van de Ven
We derive an integral representation which encodes all coefficients of the Riemann normal coordinate expansion, and also a closed formula for those coefficients.
Index-free Heat Kernel Coefficients
Anton E. M. van de Ven
Using index-free notation, we present the diagonal values of the first five heat kernel coefficients associated with a general Laplace-type operator on a compact Riemannian space w…
