I argue that the leading quantum corrections, in powers of the energy or inverse powers of the distance, may be computed in quantum gravity through knowledge of only the low energy structure of the theory. As an example, I calculate the leading quantum corrections to the Newtonian gravitational potential.

  1. Probing Gravity -- Fundamental Aspects of Metric Theories and their Implications for Tests of General Relativity

    gr-qc 2024-12 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    Gravitational wave memory is shown to arise naturally from the Isaacson backreaction formalism in general metric theories of gravity, unifying null and ordinary memory and providing a memory formula valid beyond GR.

  2. The Graviton Propagator in Asymptotically Safe Gravity with Non-Local Form Factors

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    At quadratic order in asymptotically safe gravity, the graviton propagator has a single pole at q²=0 with positive residue, no ghost poles, and yields a regular Newtonian potential at r=0.

  3. Higher-Derivative Corrections to Reissner--Nordstr\"om Black Holes from Worldline QFT

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    RF² corrections to RN black holes are computed via worldline QFT, verified exactly in G, and shown to require the weak gravity conjecture for non-negative extremal temperature.

  4. Asymptotically Safe Gravitational Form Factors from the Proper-Time Flow Equation

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    Asymptotically safe gravitational form factors are obtained by integrating the proper-time flow to k=0; finite cutoff-independent results with 1/q² UV decay require selecting the non-Gaussian fixed point as UV boundar...

  5. Relativistic implications of entropy and purity

    quant-ph 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    For two-dimensionally correlated quantum states, the quasiclassical geodesic proper time becomes non-quadratic in a correlation momentum, so the effective spacetime geometry is Finsler and time dilation depends on ent...

  6. $e^+ e^- \to \mu^+ \mu^-$ in the Asymptotically Safe Standard Model

    hep-ph 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Using reconstructed timelike graviton spectral functions, the authors find that the e+e- to mu+mu- cross-section in the asymptotically safe Standard Model falls as 1/s in the ultraviolet and is compatible with unitarity.

  7. Heavy Black Hole Effective Theory

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Heavy Black Hole Effective Theory derives a heavy-mass effective field theory for scalars and fermions in gravity and gives the second post-Minkowskian scattering amplitude including classical and leading quantum spin...

  8. Graviton Propagator in a 2-Parameter Family of de Sitter Breaking Gauges

    gr-qc 2019-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The authors derive the first-order graviton propagator perturbations in a two-parameter family of de Sitter-breaking gauges, generalizing flat-space gauge-dependence checks to curved spacetime.

    In the UV regime of Horava-Lifshitz gravity the Wheeler-DeWitt solutions suppress annihilation-to-nothing behavior for all examined spatial sections and cosmological constants.

  11. Towards the consistent perturbative expansion in discrete gravity

    gr-qc 2025-11 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Derives a relatively simple graviton propagator in de Sitter space for a one-parameter family of non-covariant gauges to enable gauge-dependence checks in loop computations.
