Understand

We discuss the hypothesis of a fixed point for quantum gravity coupled to a scalar, in the limit where the scalar field goes to infinity, accompanied by a suitable scaling of the metric.

We propose that no scalar potential is present for the dilatation symmetric quantum effective action at the fixed point.
Dimensional reduction of such a higher dimensional effective action leads to solutions with a vanishing effective four-dimensional constant.
Under rather general circumstances these are the only quasistatic stable solutions with finite four-dimensional gravitational constant.
