We recalculate the beta functions of higher derivative gravity in four dimensions using the one--loop approximation to an Exact Renormalization Group Equation. We reproduce the beta functions of the dimensionless couplings that were known in the literature but we find new terms for the beta functions of Newton's constant and of the cosmological constant. As a result, the theory appears to be asymptotically safe at a non--Gaussian Fixed Point, rather than perturbatively renormalizable and asymptotically free.

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

Fixed points of classical gravity coupled with a Standard-Model-like theory
A free conformal matter content with n1/2=4n1 and n'_0=3n1 gives a UV fixed point where all stress tensor correlators are finite; the Standard Model with right-handed neutrinos and 36 four-derivative scalars is such a theory.

Impact of quantum gravity on the UV sensitivity of extremal black holes
Asymptotically safe quantum gravity predicts a positive Goroff-Sagnotti Wilson coefficient at the Planck scale, which would keep extremal Kerr black hole tidal forces finite, but the paper's bound on the quantum gravi...

Regulator and gauge dependence of the Abelian gauge coupling in asymptotically safe quantum gravity
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.

Proper-time functional renormalization in $O(N)$ scalar models coupled to gravity
Proper-time FRG applied to gravity-coupled O(N) scalars largely reproduces scaling solutions and critical properties found with the effective average action, with some quantitative differences at finite and large N de...
