abstract

The non-trivial ultraviolet fixed point in quantum gravity is calculated by means of the exact renormalization group equation in d-dimensions $(2\simeq d\leq4)$. It is shown that the ultraviolet non-Gaussian fixed point which is expected from the perturbatively $\epsilon$-expanded calculations in $2+\epsilon$ gravity theory remains in d=4. Hence it is possible that quantum gravity is an asymptotically safe theory and renormalizable in 2<d.

  1. Path integral measure and RG equations for gravity

    hep-th 2024-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    With a corrected path-integral measure and an on-shell running scale, the Einstein-Hilbert truncation of quantum gravity has only the Gaussian fixed point, removing the asymptotic safety fixed point.

  2. Spectral Functions of Lorentzian Quantum Gravity

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Spectral functions for graviton and scalar graviton modes are derived in Lorentzian asymptotically safe quantum gravity via adapted FRG flow equations, yielding normalisable results consistent with infrared effective theory.

  3. Scaling solutions for gauge invariant flow equations in dilaton quantum gravity

    hep-th 2025-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Scaling solutions of a gauge-invariant functional flow equation support the dilaton quantum gravity fixed point, with Planck mass ~ φ² at large field and a stable negative kinetial in the infrared.

  4. 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.

  5. Matter Spectral Functions from Quantum Gravity

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Under asymptotically safe quantum gravity, photon and scalar propagators acquire Källén-Lehmann spectral functions that are non-normalizable and change sign in the ultraviolet.

  6. Fermi scale from quantum gravity scaling solution

    hep-th 2026-01 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    The Fermi/Planck ratio is claimed to be predictable from the analyticity of the quantum-gravity scaling solution for the cosmon-Higgs coupling, with numerics showing the coupling flows to a tiny, near-critical value.

  7. Diffeomorphism invariance of the effective gravitational action

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A careful calculation shows that the Fradkin-Vilkovisky path integral measure is diffeomorphism invariant, while the Fujikawa measure is not.

  8. The inflationary mechanism in Asymptotically Safe Gravity

    gr-qc 2019-08 conditional novelty 3.0 of 10

    Departure from the asymptotically safe gravity fixed point generates a plateau inflaton potential with a nearly scale-invariant spectrum, and the Starobinsky model is recovered for critical exponents θ1=θ2=2.

  9. 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.
