Abstract

We prove that a temperature independent mass distribution is identically zero below a mass threshold (mass gap) value, if the pressure satisfies certain inequalities. This supports the finding of a minimal mass in quark matter equation of state by numerical estimates and by substitution of analytic formulas. We present a few inequalities for the mass distribution based on the Markov inequality.
