Duality and Charged Pion Condensation in Chirally Asymmetric Dense Quark Matter in the Framework of an NJL2 Model

Abstract

In this talk we present investigation of the phase structure of a (1+1)-dimensional quark model with four-quark interaction and in the presence of baryon ([Formula: see text]), isospin ([Formula: see text]) and chiral isospin ([Formula: see text]) chemical potentials. Spatially homogeneous and inhomogeneous (chiral density wave (for chiral condensate) and single wave (for charged pion condensate)) condensates are considered. It is established that in the large-[Formula: see text] limit ([Formula: see text] is the number of colored quarks) there exists a duality correspondence between the chiral symmetry breaking phase and the charged pion condensation (PC) one. The primary conclusion of this investigation is the fact that chiral isospin chemical potential generates charged pion condensation with non-zero baryon density in dense quark matter. Moreover, it is shown that inhomogeneous charged PC phase with nonzero baryon density is induced in the model by arbitrary small values of the chemical potential [Formula: see text] (for a rather large region of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]).
