QCD in $d=4-2\epsilon$ space-time dimensions possesses a nontrivial critical point. Scale invariance usually implies conformal symmetry so that there are good reasons to expect that QCD at the critical point restricted to the gauge…

Finite-size effects limit the accuracy with which conformal data can be extracted from lattice simulations of critical systems. While action improvement suppresses some corrections to scaling, it does not address operator-dependent effects…
