It has been shown in [32,33] in the framework of Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model with the assumption of spatially homogeneous condensates that in the large-$N_{c}$ limit ($N_{c}$ is the number of quark colours) there exist three dual symmetries…

Several models predict the existence of heavy colored resonances decaying to top quarks in the TeV energy range that might be discovered at the LHC. In some of those models, moreover, a sizable charge asymmetry of top versus antitop quarks…
We study the correlation length between test quarks with the same electric and color charges in the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model, considering thermal and magnetic effects. We extract the correlation length from the quark correlation function.…
We study finite density QCD in an approximation in which the interaction between quarks is modelled on that induced by instantons. We sketch the mechanism by which chiral symmetry restoration at finite density occurs in this model. At all…
The Nambu Jona-Lasinio model of chiral symmetry breaking predicts a second order chiral phase transition. If the fermions in addition have non-abelian gauge interactions then the transition is expected to become a crossover as the NJL term…
We point out that the flavor problem in theories with dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking can be effectively decoupled if the physics above the TeV scale is strongly conformal, and the electroweak order parameter has a scaling dimension…
We study the beahviour of the dual quark condensate $\Sigma_1$ in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model and its nonlocal variant. In quantum chromodynamics $\Sigma_1$ can be realted to the breaking of the center symmetry and is therefore an…
We derive gluon fragmentation functions in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model by treating a gluon as a pair of color lines formed by fictitious quark and anti-quark ($q\bar q$). Gluon elementary fragmentation functions are obtained from the…
Top quark physics are an appropriate laboratory to study phenomena of the Standard Model and to test the limits of this theory. To obtain a higher precision for top quark predictions, the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in the…
We study a model in which the electroweak symmetry is dynamically broken by technicolor interactions and the symmetry-breaking is communicated to the quarks and leptons by a weak doublet of scalar fields. The scalars may be regarded as…
We analyze two versions of the extended technicolor (ETC) incorporating the top quark condensate via the flavor-universal coloron type topcolor $SU(3)_1 \times SU(3)_2$: A straightforward top-mode ETC having quarks and techniquarks assigned…
Soft mode near the critical end point in the phase diagram of two-flavor Nambu--Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model is investigated within the leading 1/N_c approximation with N_c being the number of the colors. It is explicitly shown by studying the…

Two flavor Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with N components is studied in curved space time at finite temperature and density in the leading 1/N expansion. In four space time dimension the model exhibits first order phase transition for positive…
We analyze the color-flavor-locked phase of strange quark matter modelled by the three-flavor Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) framework with and without magnetic field and discuss some additional constraints on the stability scenario when a high…
In the recently years it has been argued that spectators in heavy ion collisions are responsible for creating a strong magnetic field that could play an important role in the QCD phase transition. In this work we use the SU(2)…
We study the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with light and heavy quarks in a relativistic approach. We emphasize relevant regularization issues as well as the transition from light to heavy quarks. The approach of the electromagnetic meson form…
