We study the behaviour of Yang-Mills theory under the inclusion of gravity. In the weak- gravity limit, the running gauge coupling receives no contribution from the gravitational sector, if all symmetries are preserved. This holds true with and without cosmological constant. We also show that asymptotic freedom persists in general field-theory-based gravity scenarios including gravitational shielding as well as asymptotically safe gravity.

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Quantum gravity contributions to the beta functions of gauge and Yukawa couplings are derived via the Schwinger proper-time flow equation; their dependence on gauge fixing and regulators is quantified at gravity's int...

    In asymptotically safe gravity, dimension-five couplings of ultralight scalar dark matter to gauge field strengths vanish and are not generated perturbatively.
