Dynamically vanishing Dirac neutrino mass from quantum scale symmetry

We present a mechanism which drives Dirac neutrino masses to tiny values along the Renormalization Group flow, starting from an asymptotically safe ultraviolet completion of the third generation of the Standard Model including quantum gravity. At the same time, the mechanism produces a mass-splitting between the neutrino and the quark sector and also generates the mass splitting between top and bottom quark. The mechanism hinges on the hypercharges of the fermions and produces a tiny neutrino Yukawa coupling, because the right-handed neutrino is sterile and does not carry hypercharge.
