Description
The role of time and the possibility of spacetime carrying a foliation
structure are long standing questions which lately received a lot of
renewed attention from the quantum gravity community. In this talk, I will
review recent progress in formulating a Wetterich-type functional
renormalization group equation on foliated spacetimes and outline its
potential applications. In particular, I will discuss first results
concerning the RG flow of anisotropic gravity models, highlighting the
possibility of dynamical Lorentz-symmetry restoration along the RG flow.
