We study the relevance of strange degrees of freedom for nucleon structure functions. For this purpose we employ the three flavor generalization of the collective quantization approach to the chiral soliton of the bosonized…
The Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model is chirally symmetric. Addition of a Wilson term explicitly breaks this symmetry and leaves the model with a remaining parity-flavor symmetry. In the approximation of a large number of colors it has been shown…
The quark antiquark components of the U(3) lightest scalar meson nonet are investigated by considering the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with flavor-dependent coupling constants that were derived by considering (non-perturbative) gluon…
We present results from a lattice Monte Carlo study of the Nambu - Jona-Lasinio model in 3+1 dimensions with a baryon chemical potential mu=/=0. As mu is increased there is a transition from a chirally-broken phase to relativistic quark…
We discuss chiral symmetry breaking in the intersecting brane model of Sakai and Sugimoto at weak coupling for a generic value of separation $L$ between the flavour $D8$ and anti-$D8$-branes. For any finite value of the radius $R$ of the…

We suggest a scenario where the three light quark flavors are sequentially deconfined under increasing pressure in cold asymmetric nuclear matter, e.g., as in neutron stars. The basis for our analysis is a chiral quark matter model of…
The Nambu--Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model involves a pointlike 4-fermion interaction. While it gives a useful description of chiral dynamics (mainly in QCD), it nonetheless omits the crucially important internal wave-function of a two-body bound…

In this work corrections to the usual flavor SU(2) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio coupling due to a weak external magnetic field are calculated by considering quark polarization in a (dressed) gluon exchange mechanism for quark interactions. The quark…
The properties of hadron-quark hybrid stars are studied when the quark phase is described in terms of a local SU(3) Nambu--Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model taking into account the contribution of the vector and axial-vector interaction between the…
