We discover a weak-gravity bound in scalar-gravity systems in the asymptotic-safety paradigm. The weak-gravity bound arises in these systems under the approximations we make, when gravitational fluctuations exceed a critical strength. Beyond this critical strength, gravitational fluctuations can generate complex fixed-point values in higher-order scalar interactions. Asymptotic safety can thus only be realized at sufficiently weak gravitational interactions. We find that within truncations of the matter-gravity dynamics, the fixed point lies beyond the critical strength, unless spinning matter, i.e., fermions and vectors, is also included in the model.

  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. Asymptotic safety meets tensor field theory: towards a new class of gravity-matter systems

    hep-th 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Adding asymptotically safe gravity to the O(N)^3 tensor field theory converts its asymptotic freedom into an interacting fixed point at a non-zero quartic coupling.
