The one-loop effective action (EA) for arbitrary supersymmetric theory with broken supersymmetry on the background Rb × Td−n, where Rn, Td are n-dimensional curved space-time and d-dimensional torus, is obtained. Vilcovisky-De Witt EA in d = 5 (super)gravity on the background R4 × T1 at nonzero temperature is calculated with accuracy to linear curvature terms. Vacuum energy for open and closed superstrings with broken supersymmetry on the background M4 × T6, where M4 is Minkowski space, is also obtained. The question of the possibility of spontaneous compactification in models under consideration is analyzed.

The one-loop effective action (the Casimir gravitational energy) of the aribitrary Einstein supergravity on the background [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the Minkowski space with non-zero temperature, Td is the d-dimensional torus, is calculated. The problem of quantum breaking of supersymmetry is discussed. The Vilkovisky-De Witt effective action in the D-dimensional Einstein gravity with the Λ-term on the background [Formula: see text] is found. An idea is expressed that a temperature phase transition in Kaluza-Klein theories is possible. For d=5 gravity, the Vilkovisky-De Witt effective action on the [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is four-dimensional curved space-time with non-zero temperature, is found.

The one-loop Vilkovisky effective potential which is not dependent on a gauge and a parametrization of quantum field, is investigated. We have considered Einstein gravity on a background manifold of (flat space) × (d−4- sphere) or × (d−4- dimensional torus ), d is even, and of R3 × (1- sphere ), where R3 is flat space. The numerical calculation for the cases R4 × Td−4 (d = 6,8,10) and R3 × S1 is done. The solution to the one-loop corrected equations of motion is found, although the spontaneous compactification is not stable in these cases.

For the first time we present the general formalism and results of calculation of the two-loop effective action in Einstein quantum gravity on the background MN × Tk, where MN is Minkowski space and Tk is a k-dimensional torus. We discuss the case of a zero cosmological constant as well as of a nonzero one. The method of calculating variations of the action on a metric tensor and the technique of calculating momentum integrals in dimensional regularization are presented. Some applications to spontaneous compactification are discussed, as well as some prospects.

In the present paper a general expression of quantum effective action for arbitrary d-dimensional supergravity on the background Rn×Td−n′ where Rn is n-dimensional curved space-time, Td is d-dimensional torus, is obtained as an expansion on the curvature and its derivatives. The mechanism of inducing Einstein gravity with zero Λ term is proposed. It is shown that the 4-dimensional gravity with the true sign of the Newton constant is induced from d=5 supergravity when antiperiodic boundary conditions are chosen for all fields of supermultiplet. The one-loop effective action is obtained for d=4, 5, 7, 10 supergravities with the accuracy of linear curvature terms. The one-loop Vilcovisky-De Witt effective action is also obtained for d=5 SG’s with the accuracy of linear curvature terms.

We review (mainly) quantum effects in the theories where the gravity sector is described by metric and dilaton. The one-loop effective action for dilatonic gravity in two and four dimensions is evaluated. Renormalization group equations are constructed. The conformal anomaly and induced effective action for 2d and 4d dilaton coupled theories are found. It is applied to the study of quantum aspects of black hole thermodynamics, like calculation of Hawking radiation and quantum corrections to black hole parameters and investigation of quantum instability for such objects with multiple horizons. The use of the above effective action in the construction of nonsingular cosmological models in Einstein or Brans–Dicke (super)gravity and investigation of induced wormholes in supersymmetric Yang–Mills theory are given.5d dilatonic gravity (bosonic sector of compactified IIB supergravity) is discussed in connection with bulk/boundary (or AdS/CFT) correspondence. Running gauge coupling and quark–antiquark potential for boundary gauge theory at zero or nonzero temperature are calculated from d=5 dilatonic anti-de Sitter-like background solution which represents anti-de Sitter black hole for periodic time.

We obtain high temperature results for the one-loop effective action for composite fields in interaction with an Abelian gauge field and minimally coupled to gravity in a curved background space-time, using the Vilkovisky-DeWitt approach, by making a local expansion in the Riemann tensor and its derivatives. We also give results for the fields minimally coupled to gravity in an arbitrary curved background space-time at zero temperature, and for the case where the fields are nonminimally coupled to gravity in Euclidean de Sitter space. The results obtained are gauge-invariant and gauge-condition-independent on-shell as well as off-shell.

Kaluza–Klein reduction of 3-D gravity with minimal scalars leads to 2-D dilaton-Maxwell gravity with dilaton coupled scalars. Evaluating the one-loop effective action for dilaton coupled scalars in large-N and s-wave approximation, we apply it to study quantum evolution of BTZ black hole. It is shown that quantum-corrected BTZ BH may evaporate or else anti-evaporate which is similar to 4-D Nariai BH as is observed by Bousso and Hawking. Instable higher modes in the spectrum also indicate the possibility of proliferation of BTZ BH.
