We analyze the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model which is a chiral effective model of QCD by using the non-perturbative renormalization group at finite temperature and finite density. We discuss the chiral phase diagram in the model. We include the…
We argue that the extended Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model of hadrons can be be probed and constrained in a nontrivial way via QCD sum rules. While there arise rather restrictive bounds on the strength of the effective four-fermion interaction in…
We review the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model (NJL), proposed long time ago, as a four-fermion interaction theory with chiral symmetry. The theory is not renormalizable and presents a symmetry breaking due to quantum corrections which depends on…
QCD-based thermodynamics at zero and finite quark chemical potential is studied using an extended Nambu and Jona-Lasinio approach in which quarks couple simultaneously to the chiral condensate and to a background temporal gauge field…
A possibility of formation of static dual scalar and pseudoscalar density wave condensates in dense quark matter is considered for the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model in an external magnetic field. Within a mean-field approximation, the effective…
We investigate the isospin symmetry breaking effects within a recently derived Nambu-Jona-Lasinio related model by fitting the measured pseudoscalar meson masses and weak decay couplings $f_\pi$, $f_K$. Our model contains the next to…
We consider the Quasilocal Quark Model of NJL type including vector and axial-vector four-fermion interaction with derivatives. In the presence of a strong attraction in the scalar channel the chiral symmetry is spontaneously broken and as…
We investigate three-colour QCD thermodynamics at finite quark chemical potential. Lattice QCD results are compared with a generalized Nambu Jona-Lasinio model in which quarks couple simultaneously to the chiral condensate and to a…
NJL-type effective models represent a low-energy realization of QCD and incorporate pertinent aspects such as chiral symmetry and its spontaneous breaking, the center symmetry in the heavy-quark limit as well as the axial anomaly. One such…
The Nambu--Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model has been extensively studied by many researchers. In previous work we have generalized the NJL model to include a covariant model of confinement. In the present work we consider further modification of…
The Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model (NJL) is extended to incorporate heavy quark spin-symmetry. In this model baryons containing one heavy quark are analyzed as bound-states of light baryons, represented as chiral solitons, and mesons containing…
We present a revisited version of the nonextensive QCD-based Nambu - Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model describing the behavior of strongly interacting matter proposed by us some time ago. As before, it is based on the nonextensive generalization of…
A nonlocal chiral quark model is consistently extended beyond mean field using a strict 1/Nc expansion scheme. The parameters of the nonlocal model are refitted to the physical values of the pion mass and the weak pion decay constant. The…
We derive the the effective lagrangian that describes the interactions among vector, axial-vector mesons and pseudoscalars starting from the extended chiral quark model (ECQM). The results for the low-energy constants of this effective…
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)…
The phase diagram of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) remains a central topic in high-energy physics. At high temperature and low baryochemical potential, the chiral transition is experimentally observed and theoretically explored to be a…
We discuss vector, axial-vector, scalar and pseudoscalar two-point functions at low and intermediate energies. We first review what is known from chiral perturbation theory, as well as from a heat kernel expansion within the context of the…

We investigate the properties of hot and/or dense matter in QCD-like theories with quarks in a (pseudo)real representation of the gauge group using the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. The gauge dynamics is modeled using a simple lattice spin…
Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) at finite temperature, $T$, and quark chemical potential, $\mu$, has a rich phase structure: at low $T$ and low $\mu$, the Nambu-Goldstone (NG) phase with nearly massless pions is realized by the dynamical…
