Abstract: We discuss the physics of a restricted Weyl symmetry in a curved space-time where a gauge parameter $\Omega(x)$ of Weyl transformation satisfies a constraint $\Box \Omega = 0$. First, we present a model of QED… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevd.98.064011
Abstract: The pure $R^2$ gravity is equivalent to Einstein gravity with cosmological constant and a massless scalar field and it further possesses the so-called restricted Weyl symmetry which is a symmetry larger than scale symmetry. To… read more here.

DOI: 10.1142/s0217732321502035
Abstract: In this paper, we elucidate the relation between the restricted Weyl symmetry and spontaneous symmetry breakdown of conformal symmetry. Using a scalar–tensor gravity, we show that the restricted Weyl symmetry leads to spontaneous symmetry breakdown… read more here.
