N Dupuis, L Canet, A Eichhorn, W Metzner… - Physics Reports, 2021 - Elsevier
The renormalization group plays an essential role in many areas of physics, both
conceptually and as a practical tool to determine the long-distance low-energy properties of …

Critical reflections on asymptotically safe gravity

A Bonanno, A Eichhorn, H Gies, JM Pawlowski… - Frontiers in …, 2020 - frontiersin.org
Asymptotic safety is a theoretical proposal for the ultraviolet completion of quantum field
theories, in particular for quantum gravity. Significant progress on this program has led to a …

S Vagnozzi, R Roy, YD Tsai, L Visinelli… - … and Quantum Gravity, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
Horizon-scale images of black holes (BHs) and their shadows have opened an
unprecedented window onto tests of gravity and fundamental physics in the strong-field …

An asymptotically safe guide to quantum gravity and matter

A Eichhorn - Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2019 - frontiersin.org
Asymptotic safety generalizes asymptotic freedom and could contribute to understanding
physics beyond the Standard Model. It is a candidate scenario to provide an ultraviolet …

Quantum gravity: a fluctuating point of view

JM Pawlowski, M Reichert - Frontiers in Physics, 2021 - frontiersin.org
In this contribution, we discuss the asymptotic safety scenario for quantum gravity with a
functional renormalization group approach that disentangles dynamical metric fluctuations …

From quantum gravity to gravitational waves through cosmic strings

A Eichhorn, RRL Santos, JL Miqueleto - Physical Review D, 2024 - APS
New physics beyond the Standard Model can give rise to stochastic gravitational-wave
backgrounds, for example, through cosmic strings. In this way, gravitational-wave searches …

Asymptotic safety of gravity with matter

N Christiansen, DF Litim, JM Pawlowski, M Reichert - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
We study the asymptotic safety conjecture for quantum gravity in the presence of matter
fields. A general line of reasoning is put forward explaining why gravitons dominate the high …

Asymptotic safety of gravity with matter

A Eichhorn, M Schiffer - Handbook of Quantum Gravity, 2023 - Springer
The asymptotic-safety paradigm posits that the symmetry of quantum theories of gravity and
matter is enhanced to quantum scale symmetry, ie, scale symmetry in the presence of …

Aspects of asymptotic safety for quantum gravity

KG Falls, DF Litim, J Schröder - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
We study fixed points of quantum gravity with renormalization group methods and a
procedure to remove convergence-limiting poles from the flow. The setup is tested within the …

[HTML][HTML] Top mass from asymptotic safety

A Eichhorn, A Held - Physics Letters B, 2018 - Elsevier
We discover that asymptotically safe quantum gravity could predict the top-quark mass. For a
broad range of microscopic gravitational couplings, quantum gravity could provide an …
