A candidate for an UV completion: quadratic gravity in first order formalism
Enrique Alvarez, Jesus Anero, Sergio Gonzalez-Martin +1
We consider the most general action for gravity which is quadratic in curvature. In this case first order and second order formalisms are not equivalent. This framework is a good c…
One-loop divergences in first order Einstein-Hilbert gravity
Enrique Alvarez, Jesus Anero, Raquel Santos-Garcia
One-loop counterterms are computed in the first order formalism for the Einstein-Hilbert action with a minimally coupled scalar field using the background field method and the heat…
