The Finiteness Requirement for Six-Dimensional Euclidean Einstein Gravity

High Energy Physics - Theory 2016-09-06 v2 General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology

Abstract

The finiteness requirement for Euclidean Einstein gravity is shown to be so stringent that only the flat metric is allowed. We examine counterterms in 4D and 6D Ricci-flat manifolds from general invariance arguments.
