Using the Polyakov extended Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (PNJL) model with imaginary chemical potential, the relation between the Roberge-Weiss (RW) phase transition and the extended Z3 symmetry is studied. At low temperature, there is approximate…
We study two aspects of the CFL phase of QCD in the NJL approximation. The first one is the issue of the dependence on \mu of the ultraviolet cutoff in the gap equation, which is solved allowing a running coupling constant. The second one…

We study QED corrections to the chiral symmetry breaking in Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model with two flavors of quarks. In the model the isospin symmetry is broken by differences of the current quark masses and the electromagnetic charges…

The features of hot and dense gas of quarks which are considered as the quasi-particles of the model Hamiltonian with four-fermion interaction are studied. Being adapted to the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model this approach allows us to accommodate…
We analyze the dependence of the QCD transition temperature on the quark (or pion) mass. We find that a linear sigma model, which links the transition to chiral symmetry restoration, predicts a much stronger dependence of T_c on m_pi than…
The flavor dependence of the QCD phase diagram presents universal properties in the heavy quark limit. For the wide class of models where the quarks are treated at the one-loop level, we show, for arbitrary chemical potential, that the…
We study a large $N$ tensor model with $O(N)^3$ symmetry containing two flavors of Majorana fermions, $\psi_1^{abc}$ and $\psi_2^{abc}$. We also study its random counterpart consisting of two coupled Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev models, each one…
We present a three-loop model of neutrino mass whose most-general Lagrangian possesses a softly-broken accidental $Z_2$ symmetry. In the limit that a single parameter vanishes, $\lambda\rightarrow0$, the $Z_2$ symmetry becomes exact and the…
Based on the three-flavor Polyakov-looped Nambu$-$Jona-Lasinio (pNJL) model, we have studied the structure of the three-dimensional QCD phase diagram with respect to the temperature, the baryon chemical potential, and the isospin chemical…
We estimate the axion properties i.e. its mass, topological susceptibility and the self-coupling within the framework of Polyakov loop enhanced Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (PNJL) model at finite temperature and quark chemical potential. PNJL model,…
We report the first investigation of the QCD transition temperature, T_c, for two flavours of staggered quarks with unequal masses at lattice spacings of 1/4T. On changing the u/d quark mass ratio in such a way that m(pi_0)^2/m(pi_+)^2…
We investigate the chiral condensate and the dressed Polyakov loop or dual chiral condensate at finite temperature and density in two-flavor Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model. The dressed Polyakov loop is regarded as an equivalent order parameter…
Common lore suggests that $N$-color QCD with massive quarks has no useful order parameters which can be non-trivial at zero baryon density. However, such order parameters do exist when there are $n_f$ quark flavors with a common mass and…

The QCD phase diagram at zero chemical potential and finite temperature subject to an external magnetic field is studied within the three flavor Nambu--Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model and the NJL model with the Polyakov loop (PNJL). A scalar…
We study the lattice \njl~model with two flavors of Wilson fermions in the large $N$ limit, where $N$ is the number of `colors'. For large values of the four-fermion coupling we find a phase in which both, flavor symmetry and parity, are…
The effective quark models are employed to describe the hadronization of QCD in the quark sector. They reveal a different structure depending on how the spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking (CSB) is implemented. When the generation of light…
Beyond Standard Model physics frequently connects flavor symmetry with a discrete group. If the discrete symmetry arises spontaneously from a gauge theory, one can maintain compatibility with quantum gravity and avoid anomalies. We provide…
