abstract

Recent progress on nonlinear sigma models on de Sitter background has permitted the resummation of large inflationary logarithms by combining a variant of Starobinsky's stochastic formalism with a variant of the renormalization group. We reconsider single graviton loop corrections to the photon wave function, and to the Coulomb potential, in light of these developments. Neither of the two 1-loop results have a stochastic explanation, however, the flow of a curvature-dependent field strength renormalization explains their factors of $\ln(a)$. We speculate that the factor of $\ln(Hr)$ in the Coulomb potential should not be considered as a leading logarithm effect.

  1. Resumming Photon Loops for Inflationary Gravity

    gr-qc 2024-12 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Photon loops on de Sitter background are conserved at one loop and produce a positive, logarithmically growing correction to the Weyl tensor and Newtonian potential that resums to a power law.

  2. Resummations for Inflationary Quantum Gravity

    gr-qc 2025-01 conditional novelty 3.0 of 10

    Secular logarithms from inflationary graviton loops can be resummed by combining a modified stochastic formalism with a modified renormalization group, though the pure-gravity sector remains incomplete.
