Unimodular gravity is classically equivalent to General Relativity. This equivalence extends to actions which are functions of the curvature scalar. At the quantum level, the dynamics could differ. Most importantly, the cosmological constant is not a coupling in the unimodular action, providing a new vantage point from which to address the cosmological constant fine-tuning problem. Here, a quantum theory based on the asymptotic safety scenario is studied, and evidence for an interacting fixed point in unimodular f(R) gravity is found. We study the fixed point and its properties, and also discuss the compatibility of unimodular asymptotic safety with dynamical matter, finding evidence for its compatibility with the matter degrees of freedom of the Standard Model.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.
