Contraints on Matter from Asymptotic Safety
read the original abstract
Recent studies of the ultraviolet behaviour of pure gravity suggest that it admits a non-Gaussian attractive fixed point, and therefore that the theory is asymptotically safe. We consider the effect on this fixed point of massless minimally coupled matter fields. The existence of a UV attractive fixed point puts bounds on the type and number of such fields.

Quantum gravity contributions to the gauge and Yukawa couplings in proper time flow
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...
