We consider a two-flavor Nambu \& Jona-Lasinio model in Hartree approximation involving scalar-isoscalar and pseudoscalar-isovector quark-quark interactions. Average meson fields are defined by minimizing the effective Euklidean action. The…
First, the L\sigma M is nonperturbatively solved via loop-order gap equations. Then the Nambu-Goldstone theorem (NGT) is expressed in L\sigma M language. Next, the Lee null tadpole sum for this SU(2) L\sigma M theory is shown to require N_c…
