Polyakov Effective Action from Functional Renormalization Group Equation

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

We discuss the Polyakov effective action for a minimally coupled scalar field on a two dimensional curved space by considering a non-local covariant truncation of the effective average action. We derive the flow equation for the form factor in ∫gRck(Δ)R\int\sqrt{g}R c_{k}(Δ)R, and we show how the standard result is obtained when we integrate the flow from the ultraviolet to the infrared.
