Abstract
The one-loop effective potentials and stress-energy tensors for fields of arbitrary spin in anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime are calculated using the -function technique. The arbitrary-spin function is computed exactly on the four-dimensional hyperbolic space H4, which is the (noncompact) Euclidean section appropriate to AdS spacetime. The finite parts of the effective potentials are given explicitly in terms of integrals containing functions. Applications to AdS supergravity are pointed out.
