We investigate non-Abelian gauge theories within a Wilsonian Renormalisation Group approach. Our main question is: How close can one get to a gauge invariant flow, despite the fact that a Wilsonian coarse-graining seems to be incompatible with gauge invariance? We discuss the possible options in the case of quantum fluctuations, and argue that for thermal fluctuations a fully gauge invariant implementation can be obtained.

  1. Towards gauge independence in asymptotically safe quantum gravity

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0

    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...

  2. Spectral Functions of Lorentzian Quantum Gravity

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    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.

    Explicit closed-form evaluation of A(n) and B(m) for exponential regulators R(x)=e^{x^n} and F(x)=e^{x^m} yields fully parameterized three-loop beta functions in general N=1 SUSY gauge theories and demonstrates finite...
