contents Recently, evidence of superconductivity (SC) has been reported in pressurized La$_4$Ni$_3$O$_{10}$. Here we study the possible pairing mechanism and pairing symmetry in this material. Through fitting the density-functional-theory band structure, we provide a six-orbital tight-binding model. In comparison with the band structure of La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$, the additional non-bonding $d_{z^2}$ band is importance to the pairing mechanism here. When the multi-orbital Hubbard interactions are included, our random-phase-approximation based study yields an $s^{\pm}$-wave pairing. The dominant FS nesting with nesting vector $\mathbf{Q}_1\approx (π,π)$ is between the $γ$-pocket contributed by the bonding $d_{z^2}$ band top and the $α_1$-pocket contributed by the non-bonding $d_{z^2}$ band bottom, leading to the strongest pairing gap amplitude and opposite gap signs within the two regimes. The dominant real-space pairing is the interlayer pairing between the $d_{z^2}$ orbitals. We have also studied the doping dependence of the pairing symmetry and $T_c$.
