Variational path-integral approach to back-reactions of composite mesons in the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model

For the investigation of back-reactions of composite mesons in the NJL model, a variational path-integral treatment is formulated which yields an effective action Aeff[Dσ,Dπ;S], depending on the propagators Dσ, Dπ of σ− and π−mesons and on the full quark propagator S. The stationarity conditions δAe...
