We consider two-dimensional quantum gravity coupled to matter fields which are renormalizable but not conformally invariant. Questions concerning the β function and the effective action are addressed, and the effective action and the dressed renormalization group equations are determined for various matter potentials.

We study the interactions of the discrete states with nonzero ghost number in c = 1 two-dimensional (2D) quantum gravity. By using the vertex operator representations, it is shown that their interactions are given by the structure constants of the group of the area preserving diffeomorphism similar to those of vanishing ghost number. The effective action for these states is also worked out. The result suggests that the whole system has a BRST-like symmetry.

In this paper, we discuss an effective theory for quantum gravity and discuss the bounds on the parameters of this effective action. In particular, we show that measurement in pulsars binary systems are unlikely to improve the bounds on the coefficients of the R2 and RμνRμν terms obtained from probes of Newton's potential performed on Earth. Furthermore, we argue that if the coefficients of these terms are induced by quantum gravity, they should be at most of order unity since R2 and RμνRμν are dimension four operators. The same applies to the nonminimal coupling of the Higgs boson to the Ricci scalar.

The radius dependence of partition functions is explicitly evaluated in the continuum field theory of a compactified boson, interacting with two-dimensional quantum gravity (noncritical string) on Riemann surfaces for the first few genera. The partition function for the torus is found to be a sum of terms proportional to R and 1/R. This is in agreement with the result of a discretized version (matrix models), but is quite different from the critical string. The supersymmetric case is also explicitly evaluated.
