Abstract: (arXiv)
We present the first study of the discrete β\beta-function of the SU(3) SU(3) gauge theory with 10 massless domain-wall fermions in the fundamental representation. The renormalized coupling is obtained by the finite-volume gradient flow scheme, and the discrete β\beta-function is extrapolated to the continuum limit by the step-scaling method. Our result of the discrete β\beta-function (with s=2 s = 2 ) suggests that this theory possesses an infrared fixed point around gc27.0 g_c^2 \sim 7.0 for c=8t/L=0.3 c = \sqrt{8t}/L = 0.3 .
