2 00 2 New Nonlocal Effective Action
نویسندگان
چکیده
We suggest a new method for the calculation of the nonlocal part of the effective action. It is based on resummation of perturbation series for the heat kernel and its functional trace at large values of the proper time parameter. We derive a new, essentially nonperturbative, nonlocal contribution to the effective action in spacetimes with dimensions d > 2.

We construct the covariant nonlocal action for recently suggested long-distance modifications of gravity theory motivated by the cosmological constant and cos-mological acceleration problems. This construction is based on the special non-local form of the Einstein-Hilbert action explicitly revealing the fact that this action within the covariant curvature expansion begins with curvature-squared...

The nonlocal vacuum condensates or vacuum correlators describe the distribution of quarks and gluons in the non-perturbative QCD vacuum [1]. Physically, it means that vacuum quarks and gluons can flow through the vacuum with nonzero momentum. Nonlocal condensates play an important role in hadron physics. In particular, they are of principle importance in the study of the distribution functions ...
