Broken scale invariance and the regularization of a conformal sector in gravity with Wess-Zumino actions
We elaborate on anomaly induced actions of the Wess-Zumino (WZ) form and their relation to the renormalized effective action, which is defined by an ordinary path integral over a conformal sector, in an external gravitational background. In anomaly - induced actions, the issue of scale breaking is u...
