Worldline approaches, when available, often simplify and make more efficient the calculation of various observables in quantum field theories. In this contribution we first review the calculation of the graviton self-energy due to a loop of…
We calculate the one-loop corrections to the free energy and to the entropy for fields with arbitrary spins in the space $S^1\otimes H^N$. For conformally invariant fields by means of a conformal transformation of the metric the results are…
We exploit a recent computation of one graviton loop corrections to the self-mass [1] to quantum-correct the field equation for a massless, conformally coupled scalar on a de Sitter background. With the obvious choice for the finite part of…
It has been suggested that amplitudes for quantum higher-spin massive particles exchanging gravitons lead, via a classical limit, to results for scattering of spinning black holes in general relativity, when the massive particles are in a…
A recent proposal for gauge-invariant observables in inflation [R. Brunetti et al., JHEP 1608 (2016) 032] is examined. We give a generalisation of their construction to general background spacetimes. In flat space, we calculate one-loop…
We discuss the form of the string-loop-corrected effective action obtained by compactification of the heterotic string theory on the manifold $K3\times T^2$ or on its orbifold limit and the loop-corrected magnetic black hole solutions of…
We study the low energy regime of the scattering of two fermionic particles carrying isospin 1/2 and interacting through a non-Abelian Chern-Simons field. We calculate the one-loop scattering amplitude for both the nonrelativistic and also…
