Dynamical Mass Generation in Pseudo Quantum Electrodynamics with Gross-Neveu Interaction at finite temperature

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

We study the dynamical mass generation in Pseudo Quantum Electrodynamics (PQED) coupled to the Gross-Neveu (GN) interaction, in (2+1) dimensions, at both zero and finite temperatures. We start with a gapless model and show that, under particular conditions, a dynamically generated mass emerges. In order to do so, we use a truncated Schwinger-Dyson equation, at the large-N approximation, in the imaginary-time formalism. In the instantaneous-exchange approximation (the static regime), we obtain two critical parameters, namely, the critical number of fermions Nc(T)N_c(T) and the critical coupling constant αc(T)α_c(T) as a function of temperature and of the cutoff ΛΛ, which must be provided by experiments. In the dynamical regime, we find an analytical solution for the mass function Σ(p,T)Σ(p,T) as well as a zero-external momentum solution for p=0p=0. We compare our analytical results with numerical tests and a good agreement is found.
