The Renormalization Group flow of unimodular f(R) gravity
Unimodular gravity is classically equivalent to General Relativity. This equivalence extends to actions which are functions of the curvature scalar. At the quantum level, the dynamics could differ. Most importantly, the cosmological constant is not a coupling in the unimodular action, providing a new vantage point from which to address the cosmological constant fine-tuning problem. Here, a quan...
متن کاملOn the renormalization group flow of f(R)-gravity
We use the functional renormalization group equation for quantum gravity to construct a nonperturbative flow equation for modified gravity theories of the form S = ∫ ddx √ gf(R). Based on this equation we show that certain gravitational interactions monomials can be consistently decoupled from the renormalization group (RG) flow and reproduce recent results on the asymptotic safety conjecture. ...
متن کاملCluster Functional Renormalization Group
Functional renormalization group (FRG) has become a diverse and powerful tool to derive effective low-energy scattering vertices of interacting many-body systems. Starting from a non-interacting expansion point of the action, the flow of the RG parameter Λ allows to trace the evolution of the effective one-particle and two-particle vertices towards low energies by taking into account the vertex...
متن کاملRenormalization Group Flow of Quantum Gravity in the Einstein-Hilbert Truncation
The exact renormalization group equation for pure quantum gravity is used to derive the non-perturbative β-functions for the dimensionless Newton constant and cosmological constant on the theory space spanned by the Einstein-Hilbert truncation. The resulting coupled differential equations are evaluated for a sharp cutoff function. The features of these flow equations are compared to those found...
متن کاملIrreversibility of the Renormalization Group Flow in Two Dimensional Quantum Gravity
We argue that the torus partition sum in 2d (super) gravity, which counts physical states in the theory, is a decreasing function of the renormalization group scale. As an application we chart the space of (ĉ ≤ 1) c ≤ 1 models coupled to (super) gravity, confirming and extending ideas due to A. Zamolodchikov, and discuss briefly string theory, where our results imply that the number of degrees ...
