Using the Wilsonian procedure (renormalization group improvement) we discuss the finite quantum corrections to black hole entropy in renormalizable theories. In this way, the Wilsonian black hole entropy is found for GUT’s (of asymptotically free form, in particular) and for the effective theory for the conformal factor aiming to describe quantum gravity in the infrared region. The off-critical regime (where the coupling constants are running) for the effective theory for the conformal factor in quantum gravity (with or without torsion) is explicitly constructed. The corresponding renormalization group equations for the effective couplings are found using the Schwinger-DeWitt technique for the calculation of the divergences of the fourth order operator.

We suggest to consider conformal factor dynamics as applying to composite bound states, in the framework of the 1/N expansion. In this way, a new model of effective theory for quantum gravity is obtained. The renormalization group (RG) analysis of this model provides a framework to solve the cosmological constant problem, since the value of this constant turns out to be suppressed, as a result of the RG contributions. The effective potential for the conformal factor is also found.

Black hole thermodynamics suggests that the maximum entropy that can be contained in a region of space is proportional to the area enclosing it rather than its volume. We argue that this follows naturally from loop quantum gravity and a result of Kolmogorov and Bardzin' on the the realizability of networks in three dimensions. This represents an alternative to other approaches in which some sort of correlation between field configurations helps limit the degrees of freedom within a region. It also provides an approach to thinking about black hole entropy in terms of states inside rather than on its surface. Intuitively, a spin network complicated enough to imbue a region with volume only lets that volume grow as quickly as the area bounding it.

Starting with a brief description of Born’s reciprocal relativity theory (BRRT), based on a maximal proper force, maximal speed of light, and inertial and non-inertial observers, we derive the exact thermal relativistic corrections to the Schwarzschild, Reissner–Nordstrom, and Kerr–Newman black hole entropies and provide a detailed analysis of the many novel applications and consequences to the physics of black holes, quantum gravity, minimal area, minimal mass, Yang–Mills mass gap, information paradox, arrow of time, dark matter, and dark energy. We finish by outlining our proposal towards a space–time–matter unification program where matter can be converted into spacetime quanta and vice versa.

This is a short chapter summarizing the main results concerning the renormalization group in models of pure quantum gravity, without matter fields. The chapter starts with a critical analysis of non-perturbative renormalization group approaches, such as the asymptotic safety hypothesis. After that, it presents solid one-loop results based on the minimal subtraction scheme in the one-loop approximation. The polynomial models that are briefly reviewed include the on-shell renormalization group in quantum general relativity, and renormalization group equations in fourth-derivative quantum gravity and superrenormalizable models. Special attention is paid to the gauge-fixing dependence of the renormalization group trajectories.

We show that counting different configurations that give rise to black-hole entropy in loop quantum gravity is related to partitions in number theory.

We consider two-dimensional quantum gravity coupled to matter fields which are renormalizable but not conformally invariant. Questions concerning the β function and the effective action are addressed, and the effective action and the dressed renormalization group equations are determined for various matter potentials.
