An explicit formula for the conformal anomaly corresponding to skew--symmetric tensor fields is obtained, by using zeta--function regularization and the trace tensor kernel formula. Explicit exact and numerical values of the anomaly for $p-$forms of order up to $p=4$ in spaces of dimension up to $n=10$ are then calculated.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2003-07-09T17:36:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "81T50", "14D21", "58A10" ], "keywords": [ "conformal anomaly", "vector bundles", "trace tensor kernel formula", "real compact hyperbolic manifolds", "skew-symmetric tensor fields" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "journal": "Journal of Physics A Mathematical General", "year": 2004, "month": "Feb", "volume": 37, "number": 6, "pages": 2479 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 13, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 623242, "adsabs": "2004JPhA...37.2479B" } } }
