AbstractWe study the quantum gravitational system coupled to a charged scalar, Dirac fermions, and electromagnetic fields. We use the “exact” or “functional” renormalization group equation to derive the effective action $$\Gamma _0$$ Γ 0 by integrating the flow equation from the ultraviolet scale down to $$k=0$$ k = 0 . The resulting effective action consists of local terms and nonlocal terms with unique coefficients.

Analytical Expression

In the functional renormalization group (FRG), the introduction of a momentum cutoff often breaks symmetry present in a theory. The most important example is the gauge symmetry. However a symmetry survives in the presence of a cutoff in a modified form. We apply our understanding to QED as the simplest case. A modified version of the Ward–Takahashi identity is solved partially to constrain the Wilson action. Furthermore, we study the flow equation for the photon 2-point function and find its analytical expression for the regulator function of the exponential type.
