Matching the Vilkovisky–DeWitt Effective Action of Quantum Gravity to String Theory

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: In this work, the matching of the Vilkovisky–DeWitt effective action of quantum gravity is discussedwith an example of an ultra‐violet complete theory of quantum gravity. The authors show how this matching enables a calculation of the local Wilson coefficients of the effective action. Several examples in string theory are provided. Moreover, the matching conditions within the context of the swampland program are discussed.
