Description
SU(3) lattice gauge theory with four flavors of massless Susskind fermions is studied on a small (44) lattice. The fermion determinant is treated in an exact manner. It is observed that the phase transition which is seen in the pure gauge theory on that lattice disappears when the fermionic determinant is included in the action. (orig.)
