Variational solution of the Gross-Neveu model at finite temperature in the large N limit

Abstract

We use a nonperturbative variational method to investigate the phase transition of the Gross-Neveu model. It is shown that the variational procedure can be generalized to the finite temperature case. The large N result for the phase transition is correctly reproduced.
