Cutoff-independent regularization of four-fermion interactions for color superconductivity

Abstract

We implement a cutoff-independent regularization of four-fermion interactions to calculate the color-superconducting gap parameter in quark matter. The traditional cutoff regularization has difficulties for chemical potentials μ of the order of the cutoff , predicting in particular a vanishing gap at μ . The proposed cutoff-independent regularization predicts a finite gap at high densities and indicates a smooth matching with the weak coupling QCD prediction for the gap at asymptotically high densities.
