Conformal Couplings in Induced Gravity

It is found that the induced gravity with conformal couplings requires the conformal invariance in both classical and quantum levels for consistency. This is also true for the induced gravity with an extended conformal coupling interacting with torsion.

Wilsonian Black Hole Entropy in Quantum Gravity

Using Wilsonian procedure (renormalization group improvement) we discuss the finite quantum corrections to black hole entropy in renormalizable theories. In this way, the Wilsonian black hole entropy is found for GUTs (of asymptotically free form, in particularly) and for the effective theory of conformal factor aiming to describe quantum gravity in infrared region. The off-critical regime (where the coupling constants are running) for effective theory of conformal factor in quantum gravity (with or without torsion) is explicitly constructed. The correspondent renormalization group equations for the effective couplings are found using Schwinger-De Witt technique for the calculation of the divergences of fourth order operator.

Dynamical Supersymmetry of a Vortex System with $1/r^{2}$ Potential

The Pauli Hamiltonian for a spin $\frac{1}{2}$ charged particle interacting with a point magnetic vortex and $1/r^{2}$ potential exhibits a dynamical supersymmetry $Osp(1,1)$ on the plane except at the origin. Using this symmetry, the spectrum and the wave functions have been obtained. And, the dynamical supersymmetry could be imported to the case when an external harmonic potential is added.

Phase Transition in Conformally Induced Gravity with Torsion

We have considered the quantum behavior of a conformally induced gravity in the minimal Riemann-Cartan space. The regularized one-loop effective potential considering the quantum fluctuations of the dilaton and the torsion fields in the Coleman-Weinberg sector gives a sensible phase transition for an inflationary phase in De Sitter space. For this effective potential, we have analyzed the semi-classical equation of motion of the dilaton field in the slow-rolling regime.
