Beschreibung:
This book seeks to construct a consistent fundamental quantum theory of gravity, which is often considered one of the most challenging open problems in present-day physics. It approaches this challenge using modern functional renormalization group techniques, and attempts to realize the idea of "Asymptotic Safety" originally proposed by S. Weinberg. Quite remarkably, the book makes significant progress regarding both the fundamental aspects of the program and its phenomenological consequences.
Nominated as an outstanding Ph.D thesis by the Universita degli studi di Catania, Italy and Radboud University Nijmegen, Netherlands
