We consider two-dimensional quantum gravity coupled to matter fields which are renormalizable but not conformally invariant. Questions concerning the β function and the effective action are addressed, and the effective action and the dressed renormalization group equations are determined for various matter potentials.

The nonlinear sigma model with a two-dimensional basis space and an n-dimensional target space is considered. Two different basis spaces are considered; the first is an 0(2)×0(2) subspace of the 0(2,2) projective space related to the Minkowski basis space, and the other is a toroidal space embedded into three-dimensional Euclidean space, characterized by radii R and r. The target space is taken to be an arbitrarily curved Riemannian manifold. One-loop dependence on the renormalization induced scale μ is shown in the toroidal basis space to be the same as in a flat or spherical basis space.

The renormalization group flow in the nonlinear sigma model approach is explicitly solved to the fourth order in the case of an open string propagating in the tachyon background. Using a regularization different from the original one used by Klebanov and Susskind (K-S), we show that its fixed point solution produces the tree-level 5-point tachyon amplitude. Furthermore we prove K-S’s conjecture, i.e., the equivalence between the vanishing β-function defined by our regularization and the equation of motion arising from the effective action, up to all orders.
