Finite-size scaling tests for SU(3) lattice gauge theory with color sextet fermions

The observed slow running of the gauge coupling in SU(3) lattice gauge theory with two flavors of color sextet fermions naturally suggests it is a theory with one relevant coupling, the fermion mass, and that at zero mass correlation functions decay algebraically. I perform a finite-size scaling study on simulation data at two values of the bare gauge coupling with this assumption and observe a common exponent for the scaling of the correlation length with the fermion mass, yₘ~1.5. An analysis of the scaling of valence Dirac eigenvalues at one of these bare couplings produces a similar number.
