曲率依赖共形规则是定义在已知度量上的局部前向映射，但它们通常不是度量变量的局域变换。我们研究非退化类$\tilde g_{\u03bc\u03bd}=F(R[g])g_{\u03bc\u03bd}$，其中$F>0$且$F_R\neq0$。引入一个独立的辅助标量可使前向映射局域化，而恢复原度量则需要一个微分约束。完整的逆度量切映射包含非多项式投影算子$\u03be^\u03bc\u03be^\u03bd/\u03be^2$；因此在无限制度量的开集上，不存在可微的有限阶射流逆，即仅涉及同一点处有限多阶导数的公式。不过，在指定边界或柯西数据后，可能存在分支意义下的泛函逆。度量$f(R)$引力给出了一个明确的实现：其局部爱因斯坦标架的标量-张量表示是母理论，而仅含度量的爱因斯坦侧描述则需要由正规算子控制的微分截面。我们推导了拉回的经典黑塞矩阵及其离壳嵌入项，并在二次模型中展示了约束高斯消元如何产生标量引力子的非定域核、对应于所示测度的正规行列式，以及零模相容性条件。精确的母理论解与度量解保持等价；该障碍涉及定域性以及离壳变分和涨落域。这些结果为评估修改引力中曲率依赖的标架变换提供了精确框架，并阐明了它们对有效作用量、半经典分析和量子标架等价性的影响。
英文摘要
Curvature-dependent conformal rules are local forward assignments on known metrics, but they are not generically local changes of metric variables. We study the nondegenerate class $\widetilde g_{μν}=F(R[g])g_{μν}$, with $F>0$ and $F_R\neq0$. Introducing an independent auxiliary scalar localizes the forward map, while recovering the original metric requires a differential constraint. The complete inverse metric tangent map contains the nonpolynomial projector $ξ^μξ^ν/ξ^2$; hence no differentiable finite-jet inverse, i.e., a formula involving only finitely many derivatives at the same point, exists on an open set of unrestricted metrics. Branchwise functional inverses may nevertheless exist after boundary or Cauchy data are specified. Metric $f(R)$ gravity gives an explicit realization: its local Einstein-frame scalar--tensor representation is a parent theory, whereas a metric-only Einstein-side description requires a differential section governed by a normal operator. We derive the pulled-back classical Hessian and its off-shell embedding term, and in the quadratic model show how constrained Gaussian elimination produces the scalaron nonlocal kernel, the corresponding normal determinant for the displayed measure, and the zero-mode compatibility condition. Exact parent and metric solutions remain equivalent; the obstruction concerns locality and the off-shell variational and fluctuation domains. These results provide a precise framework for assessing curvature-dependent frame transformations in modified gravity and clarify their implications for effective actions, semiclassical analyses, and quantum frame equivalence.
