Abstract

We calculate the lowest order quantum gravity contributions to QED beta function in an effective field theory picture with a momentum cutoff. We use a recently proposed four-dimensional improved momentum cutoff that preserves gauge and Lorentz symmetries. We find that there is nonvanishing quadratic contribution to the photon two-point function but that does not lead to the running of the original coupling after renormalization. We argue that gravity cannot turn gauge theories asymptotically free. © 2014 World Scientific Publishing Company.
