Popis: Hyperuniformity, whereby the static structure factor (or density correlator) obeys $S(q)\sim q^{\varsigma}$ with $\varsigma> 0$, emerges at criticality in systems having multiple absorbing states, such as periodically sheared suspensions. These lie in the conserved directed percolation (C-DP) universality class, for which analytic results for $\varsigma$ are lacking. Specifically, $\varsigma$ appears inaccessible within an exact `interfacial mapping' that yields other C-DP exponents via functional renormalization group (FRG). Here, using Doi-Peliti field theory for interacting particles and perturbative RG about a Gaussian model, we find $\varsigma = 0^+$ and $\varsigma= 2\epsilon/9 + O(\epsilon^2)$ in dimension $d>4$ and $d=4-\epsilon$ respectively. The latter disproves a previously conjectured scaling relation for $\varsigma$. We show how hyperuniformity emerges from anticorrelation of strongly fluctuating active and passive densities. Our calculations also yield the remaining C-DP exponents without recourse to functional RG methods.
