The conformal frame problem in scalar-tensor theories stems from incomplete transformation rules for parameters and overlooked Ward identities; active conformal transformations provide the suitable framework while passive ones do not.

abstract
The low energy physics as predicted by strings can be expressed in two (conformally related) different variables, usually called {\em frames}. The problem is raised as to whether it is physically possible in some situations to tell one from the other.
