Abstract

The multi-flavor Schwinger model on R1R^1 at finite temperature TT is mathematically equivalent to the model on S1S^1 at T=0T=0. The latter is reduced to a quantum mechanical system of N1N-1 degrees of freedom. Physics sensitively depends on the parameter m/Tm/T. Finite temperature behavior of the massive Schwinger model is quite different from that of the massless Schwinger model.
