Our analysis supports the existence of an upper critical number of Fermion flavors and exhibits the explicit form of the gap equation as well as the form of the critical exponent for the inverse correlation lenght of the order parameter", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1993-01-21T18:17:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "fermion mass generation", "dimensional gauge theory", "chiral dynamics", "current algebra point", "inverse correlation lenght" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
