Abstract: The dependence of functional renormalization group equation on regulators is investigated. A parameter is introduced to control the suppression of regulators. Functional renormalization group equations will become regulator-independent if this newly introduced parameter is sent to infinity in the end of calculation. One-loop renormalization flow equations of QCD are derived. The novelty is that both the coupling running equation and the mass running equation are mass-dependent. Different flow patterns are explored. A mechanism for nonoccurrence of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking is arrived at. The existence of a conformai window is also discussed in the language of renormalization flow. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
