Asymptotic Safety in Lorentzian quantum gravity

We report on a recently introduced Functional Renormalization Group (RG) Equation, and we apply it to quantum gravity in Lorentzian spacetimes. While the RG flow is state-dependent, it is possible to evaluate state and background independent contributions to the flow. Taking into account only these universal terms, the RG flow exhibits a non-trivial fixed point in the Einstein-Hilbert truncation, providing a mechanism for Asymptotic Safety in Lorentzian quantum gravity.
