The connection between the renormalization group for the σ-model effective action for the Polyakov string and the S-matrix generating functional for dual amplitudes is studied. A more general approach to the renormalization group equation for string theory is proposed.

Method Of Steepest Descent

We discuss the calculation of one-loop effective actions in Lorentzian spacetimes, based on a very simple application of the method of steepest descent to the integral over the field. We show that for static spacetimes this procedure agrees with the analytic continuation of Euclidean calculations. We also discuss how to calculate the effective action by integrating a renormalization group equation. We show that the result is independent of arbitrary choices in the definition of the coarse-graining and we see again that the Lorentzian and Euclidean calculations agree. When applied to quantum gravity on static backgrounds, our procedure is equivalent to analytically continuing time and the integral over the conformal factor.

Abstract We study relationship between renormalization group and diffusion equation. We consider the exact renormalization group equation for a scalar field that includes an arbitrary cutoff function and an arbitrary quadratic seed action. As a generalization of the result obtained by Sonoda and Suzuki, we find that the correlation functions of diffused fields with respect to the bare action agree with those of bare fields with respect to the effective action, where the diffused field obeys a generalized diffusion equation determined by the cutoff function and the seed action and agrees with the bare field at the initial time.

AbstractWe study the quantum gravitational system coupled to a charged scalar, Dirac fermions, and electromagnetic fields. We use the “exact” or “functional” renormalization group equation to derive the effective action $$\Gamma _0$$ Γ 0 by integrating the flow equation from the ultraviolet scale down to $$k=0$$ k = 0 . The resulting effective action consists of local terms and nonlocal terms with unique coefficients.

Scaling Arguments

Scaling arguments are used to relate the external field dependence of the vacuum functional to the changes in the other parameters characterizing the model. Under certain circumstances, this renormalization group equation can be solved, at least approximately, for the external field dependence of the effective action. In particular, we focus on the case of a strong external magnetic field.
