The properties of the two-flavored Gross-Neveu model in the (1+1)-dimensional R1×S1 spacetime with compactified space coordinate are investigated in the presence of the isospin chemical potential μI. The consideration is performed in the limit Nc→∞, i.e. in the case with infinite number of colored quarks. It is shown that at L=∞ (L is the length of the circumference S1) the pion condensation phase is realized for arbitrary small nonzero μI. At finite values of L, the phase portraits of the model in terms of parameters ν∼μI and λ∼1/L are obtained both for periodic and antiperiodic boundary conditions of the quark field. It turns out that in the plane (λ,ν) there is a strip 0≤λ<λc which lies as a whole inside the pion condensed phase. In this phase the pion condensation gap is an oscillating function vs both λ (at fixed ν) and ν (at fixed λ).
