We investigate four-fermion interactions with $N$-component fermion in Einstein universe for arbitrary space-time dimensions ($2 \leq D<4$). It is found that the effective potential for composite operator $\overline{\psi}\psi$ is calculable…
Some years ago Appelquist and Chanowitz considered the scattering of fermion--anti-fermion into a pair of longitudinal gauge bosons. Their calculation established that unitarity implies that the physics giving mass to a quark of mass $m_f$…
