Phase structure of the four dimensional Nambu -- Jona-Lasinio model has been investigated in two cases: 1) in nonsimply connected space-time of the form $R^3\times S^1$ (space coordinate is compactified and the length of the circle $S^1$ is…

We study dynamical symmetry breaking on a cylinder in external magnetic field parallel to the axis of cylinder when magnetic field affects the dynamics of fermions only through the Aharonov-Bohm phase. We find that unlike other previously…
It is known that the symmetric (massless) state of the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model in 2+1 dimensions in a magnetic field B is not the ground state of the system at zero temperature due to the presence of a negative, linear in &|\sigma+i\pi|$,…
