Abstract
Chiral symmetry breaking in a purely fermionic theory is investigated by the help of the renormalization group method. The RG equation for the running mass admits a solution with vanishing bare mass and finite physical mass. The running Fermi coupling constant, , converges to a finite (renormalized) physical value. It is also shown that the RG equation for , the dimensionless Fermi coupling, has an UV fixed point . Contrary to a previous result however, it is proven that the chiral symmetry breaking point does not coincide with .
