The functional f(R) approximation
read the original abstract
This article is a review of functional $f(R)$ approximations in the asymptotic safety approach to quantum gravity. It mostly focusses on a formulation that uses a non-adaptive cutoff, resulting in a second order differential equation. This formulation is used as an example to give a detailed explanation for how asymptotic analysis and Sturm-Liouville analysis can be used to uncover some of its most important properties. In particular, if defined appropriately for all values $-\infty<R<\infty$, one can use these methods to establish that there are at most a discrete number of fixed points, that these support a finite number of relevant operators, and that the scaling dimension of high dimension operators is universal up to parametric dependence inherited from the single-metric approximation. Formulations using adaptive cutoffs, are also reviewed, and the main differences are highlighted.

The fermion sector of the SMEFT from asymptotically safe gravity
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.

Scaling Solutions of Matter Form Factors in Asymptotically Safe Quantum Gravity
A non-trivial UV fixed point for the scalar matter form factor exists in asymptotically safe quantum gravity, with a discrete spectrum of critical exponents and infrared locality restored.

Towards gauge independence in asymptotically safe quantum gravity
In an essential proper-time scheme, gauge dependence of the flow for Newton's constant cancels order-by-order once redundant off-shell terms are absorbed by field redefinitions, leaving a gauge-independent non-Gaussia...
