We study the matter one-loop quantum corrections to the gravitational sector in a gravity theory coupled with a nonlocal scalar field. We find that non-renormalizable divergences disappear when the propagator of the scalar field approaches…

Cosmological correlators are important observables in cosmology. They are often approximated by de Sitter space correlators. In this paper, we give a first precise diagrammatical computation of higher loop diagrams to all orders for a…
The leading perturbative contributions into the two-point gauge-invariant correlator $Tr<gF(x)U(x,0)U(0,y)F(y)U(y,0)U(0,x)>$ are calculated at the one-loop order. It is shown, that nonlocal condensate is nonzero at this order. The relation…
The $D=11$ pure spinor superparticle has been shown to describe linearized $D=11$ supergravity in a manifestly covariant way. A number of authors have proposed that its correlation functions be used to compute amplitudes. The use of the…

We consider the one-loop effective action due to gravitons in a FLRW background with constant epsilon=-(dH/dt)/H^2. By expanding around epsilon=0 (corresponding to an expansion around de Sitter space), we can study how the deviation from de…
We use dimensional regularization in pure quantum gravity on de Sitter background to evaluate the one loop expectation value of an invariant operator which gives the local expansion rate. We show that the renormalization of this nonlocal…
