Description

We propose a novel method to define and calculate the energy-momentum tensor (EMT) in lattice gauge theory on the basis of the Yang-Mills gradient flow. Using this method, we measure the thermodynamics of SU(3) gauge theoy on fine lattices with lattice size up to 64^3x18. The numerical results with small lattice spacing confirm our previous findings; the expectation values of the EMT have reasonable dependences on the flow time near the continuum limit, and thus our method can successfully be applied to the analysis of the EMT on the lattice.
