一阶action与欧几里得量子引力

First-order action and Euclidean quantum gravity

Tomas Liko, David Sloan

摘要:

我们证明了渐近平坦欧氏时空的在壳路径积分可以在广义相对论的一阶公式中给出,而不需要假设边界等距嵌入欧氏空间,也不需要增加无穷多个反项。对于说明性的例子,我们的方法,我们评估的四维欧氏史瓦西和NUT荷电时空的一阶作用,推导出相应的壳配分函数,并显示正确的热力学量的解决方案被复制。

英文摘要:

We show that the on-shell path integral for asymptotically flat Euclidean spacetimes can be given in the first-order formulation of general relativity, without assuming the boundary to be isometrically embedded in Euclidean space and without adding infinite counter-terms. For illustrative examples of our approach, we evaluate the first-order action for the four-dimensional Euclidean Schwarzschild and NUT-charged spacetimes to derive the corresponding on-shell partition functions, and show that the correct thermodynamic quantities for the solutions are reproduced.
