Issues of symmetries in the Gross-Neveu model

  • 1. Departmento de Fisica, Universidad Nacional de La Platal, C.C. No 67, 1900 La Plata (Argentina)

Description

The authors study the chiral Gross-Neveu model using a path integral approach. After showing how U massless excitations decouple they investigate the SU(N) sector of the theory. One then finds that for certain values of the coupling constant, the original (vector SU(N)) symmetry is enlarged to a chiral SU(N), giving rise to a conformally invariant model
