Phase transitions in TGFT: functional renormalization group in the cyclic-melonic potential approximation and equivalence to O(N) models

Abstract In the group field theory approach to quantum gravity, continuous spacetime geometry is expected to emerge via phase transition. However, understanding the phase diagram and finding fixed points under the renormalization group flow remains a major challenge. In this work we tackle the issue...
