Abstract

We consider quadratic gravity with only Ricci squared and Weyl squared kinetic terms at tree-level, coupled to specific numbers of infinite towers of free scalars, Weyl fermions and gauge bosons in four dimensions. We show that predictable cosmological and Newton constants are induced at 1-loop. This result is cross-checked using both the heat kernel method and Adler's approach.
