FKWC-bases and geometrical identities for classical and quantum field theories in curved spacetime
Yves Décanini, Antoine Folacci
Fulling, King, Wybourne and Cummings (FKWC) have proposed to expand systematically the Riemann polynomials encountered in the context of field theories in curved spacetime on stand…
Irreducible forms for the metric variations of the action terms of sixth-order gravity and approximated stress-energy tensor
Yves Décanini, Antoine Folacci
We provide irreducible expressions for the metric variations of the gravitational action terms constructed from the 17 curvature invariants of order six in derivatives of the metri…
Hadamard renormalization of the stress-energy tensor for a quantized scalar field in a general spacetime of arbitrary dimension
Yves Décanini, Antoine Folacci
We develop the Hadamard renormalization of the stress-energy tensor for a massive scalar field theory defined on a general spacetime of arbitrary dimension. Our formalism could be…
Off-diagonal coefficients of the DeWitt-Schwinger and Hadamard representations of the Feynman propagator
Yves Décanini, Antoine Folacci
Having in mind applications to gravitational wave theory (in connection with the radiation reaction problem), stochastic semiclassical gravity (in connection with the regularizatio…
Complex angular momentum in black hole physics and quasinormal modes
Yves Décanini, Antoine Folacci, Bruce Jensen
By using the complex angular momentum approach, we prove that the quasinormal mode complex frequencies of the Schwarzschild black hole are Breit-Wigner type resonances generated by…
