Lorentz violation and the proper-time method

arXiv:0708.3348 · doi:10.1016/j.physletb.2007.10.089

Abstract

In this paper, we apply the proper-time method to generate the Lorentz-violating Chern-Simons terms in the four-dimensional Yang-Mills and non-linearized gravity theories. It is shown that the coefficient of the induced Chern-Simons term is finite but regularization dependent.
