RECENT APPLICATIONS OF THE WEYL ANOMALY

摘要

We review some recent applications of the Weyl anomaly: (1) The holographicWeyl anomaly, (2) The Weyl anomaly and corrections to Newton's law in the Randall-Sundrum braneworld, (3) The revival of the original (Starobinsky) model of inflation driven by the Weyl anomaly, (4) The Weyl anomaly and the mass of the graviton in the Karch-Randall braneworld.
