Dear CTPU members,
We are pleased to announce a Journal club by Arsham Farzinnia.
* Title: Agravity
* Speaker: Arsham Farzinnia (IBS-CTPU)
* Date: 14:00-15:00 PM, 26 February 2015
* Abstract: We explore the possibility that the fundamental theory of nature does not contain any scale. This implies a renormalizable quantum gravity theory where the graviton kinetic term has 4 derivatives, and can be reinterpreted as gravity minus an anti-graviton. We compute the super-Planckian RGE of adimensional gravity coupled to a generic matter sector. The Planck scale and a flat space can arise dynamically at quantum level provided that a quartic scalar coupling and its beta-function vanish at the Planck scale.

We look forward to your participation in the journal club.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Mijin Kim
