abstract
The conservation of the isovector axial current in lattice QCD with massless Wilson quarks is studied to one-loop order of perturbation theory. Following a strategy described in a previous publication, the O($a$) counterterm required for on-shell improvement of the current is computed. We also confirm an earlier result of Wohlert for the coefficient in front of the SW term in the improved action.

Safety versus triviality on the lattice
For SU(2) with 24 and 48 Dirac flavors, the lattice gradient-flow coupling matches the perturbative two-loop running at accessible scales and refuses to grow large, which is compatible with a Landau pole but does not disprove a strong-coupling ultraviolet fixed point.
