Conformal fluctuations of the metric tensor at the Planck scale are considered. They give rise to a lower bound of the proper length. This leads to finite expressions for quantities related to propagators without the need of renormalization…
In a weakly first order phase transition the typical scale of a subcritical bubble calculated in our previous papers turned out to be too small. At this scale quantum fluctuations may dominate and our previous classical result may be…
We study the oscillatory flux dependence of the supercurrent in a thin superconducting loop, closed by a Josephson junction. Quantum fluctuations of the order parameter in the loop affect the shape and renormalize the amplitude of the…
