QED effective action at finite temperature and density
Abstract
The QED effective action at finite temperature and density is calculated to all orders in an external homogeneous and time-independent magnetic field in the weak coupling limit. The free energy, obtained explicitly, exhibit the expected de\ Haas -- van\ Alphen oscillations. An effective coupling at finite temperature and density is derived in a closed form and is compared with renormalization group results.
