The continuum limit of quantum gravity at first order in perturbation theory

Abstract The Wilsonian renormalization group (RG) properties of the conformal factor of the metric are profoundly altered by the fact that it has a wrong-sign kinetic term. The result is a novel perturbative continuum limit for quantum gravity, which is however non-perturbative in ħ. The ultraviolet...
