In quantum electrodynamics, the beta function is positive: the electromagnetic coupling increases with energy, suggesting that the theory becomes strongly coupled at very high energies and may require an ultraviolet completion. In quantum chromodynamics, the beta function is negative at weak coupling: the strong force...
