与QEG耦合的QED

QED coupled to QEG

Ulrich Harst, Martin Reuter

摘要:

本文讨论了量子电动力学(QED)与量子爱因斯坦引力(QEG)耦合的非微扰重整化群流,并探讨了将其连续极限定义在一个不动点上的可能性,从而得到一个非平凡的相互作用场论.我们找到了两个适合于渐近安全构造的不动点。在第一种情况下,精细结构常数在固定点处为零,其红外(“重整化”)值是一个不由理论本身确定的自由参数。在第二种情况下,精细结构常数的固定点值是非零的,并且其红外值是理论的可计算预测。

英文摘要:

We discuss the non-perturbative renormalization group flow of Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) coupled to Quantum Einstein Gravity (QEG) and explore the possibilities for defining its continuum limit at a fixed point that would lead to a non-trivial, i.e. interacting field theory. We find two fixed points suitable for the Asymptotic Safety construction. In the first case, the fine-structure constant vanishes at the fixed point and its infrared ("renormalized") value is a free parameter not determined by the theory itself. In the second case, the fixed point value of the fine-structure constant is non-zero, and its infrared value is a computable prediction of the theory.
