We study renormalization group flow in a non-local version of quantum electrodynamics (QED). We determine the regime in which the theory flows to a local theory in the infrared and study a possible UV completion of four-dimensional QED. In addition, we find that there exist non-local conformal theories with a one-dimensional conformal manifold and non-local deformations of QED in three dimensions that are exactly marginal. Along the way we develop methods for coupling non-local derivatives to external sources and discuss unitarity and conformal vs. scale invariance of these theories.

    For 2<d<4, 2D massless fermions coupled to a d-dimensional Maxwell field are exactly described by a scalar whose scaling dimension runs from 0 in the UV to (4-d)/2 in the IR.
