Recently the revised phase diagram of the (large N) Gross-Neveu model in 1+1 dimensions with discrete chiral symmetry has been determined numerically. It features three phases, a massless and a massive Fermi gas and a kink-antikink crystal.…
We argue that in cold, dense quark matter, in the limit of a large number of colors the ground state is unstable with respect to creation of a complicated Quarkyonic Chiral Spiral (QCS) state, in which both chiral and translational…
We confirm earlier hints that the conventional phase diagram of the discrete chiral Gross-Neveu model in the large N limit is deficient at non-zero chemical potential. We present the corrected phase diagram constructed in mean field theory.…

We investigate the finite-temperature and -density chiral Gross-Neveu model with an axial U$_A$(1) symmetry in $1+1$ dimensions on the lattice. In the limit where the number of flavors $N_\mathrm{f}$ tends to infinity the continuum model…
It is shown that the inhomogeneous chiral condensate in the Gross-Neveu (GN) model takes the chiral spiral form, even though the thermodynamic functional depends only on the chiral scalar density. It is the inhomogeneity of the chiral…
We study the chiral Gross-Neveu model with Wilson fermions. In the framework of the Schroedinger functional we show that in general not only the bare mass has to be tuned to achieve chiral symmetry in the continuum, but also coupling…

The Standard Model has some intrinsic beauty in the sector of fermions and gauge bosons. Its scalar sector, though minimal, is however haunted by the hierarchy problem. The fermionic spectrum also have two major problems, the flavor problem…
