The asymptotic-safety paradigm posits that the symmetry of quantum theories of gravity and matter is enhanced to quantum scale symmetry, i.e., scale symmetry in the presence of quantum fluctuations, at very high energies. To achieve such a…
Swampland conjectures are a set of proposed necessary conditions for a low-energy effective field theory to have a UV completion inside a theory of quantum gravity. Swampland conjectures have interesting phenomenological consequences, and…
Asymptotic Safety implies that observables including scattering amplitudes remain finite at the highest energy scales. Traditionally, this feature is connected to an interacting fixed point of the Wilsonian renormalization group that…
