We use a functional renormalization group equation tailored to the Arnowitt-Deser-Misner formulation of gravity to study the scale-dependence of Newton's coupling and the cosmological constant on a background spacetime with topology S^1xS^d. The resulting beta functions possess a non-trivial renormalization group fixed point, which may provide the high-energy completion of the theory through the asymptotic safety mechanism. The fixed point is robust with respect to changing the parametrization of the metric fluctuations and regulator scheme. The phase diagrams show that this fixed point is connected to a classical regime through a crossover. In addition the flow may exhibit a regime of "gravitational instability", modifying the theory in the deep infrared. Our work complements earlier studies of the gravitational renormalization group flow on a background topology S^1xT^d and establishes that the flow is essentially independent of the background topology.

  1. The fermion sector of the SMEFT from asymptotically safe gravity

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    In a toy model of one quark generation, asymptotically safe gravity predicts four-fermion SMEFT coefficients are either Planck-scale suppressed or zero, with exceptions only at very large gravitational coupling.

  2. The Graviton Propagator in Asymptotically Safe Gravity with Non-Local Form Factors

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    At quadratic order in asymptotically safe gravity, the graviton propagator has a single pole at q²=0 with positive residue, no ghost poles, and yields a regular Newtonian potential at r=0.

  3. Regulator and gauge dependence of the Abelian gauge coupling in asymptotically safe quantum gravity

    hep-th 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    The existence of an asymptotically safe UV completion for the Abelian gauge coupling is shown to survive simultaneous variations of the regulator and gauge parameters in certain minimal-sensitivity regions.

  4. Asymptotically safe quantum gravity and its phenomenology -- a review

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 1.0 of 10

    Review surveying progress toward realistic asymptotically safe quantum gravity with quantum scale symmetry and observational implications.
