A q-deformed NJL model at finite temperature: chiral symmetry restoration and pion properties

We review the implementation of a q-deformed fermionic algebra in the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model (NJL). The gap equations obtained from a deformed condensate as well as from the deformation of the NJL Hamiltonian are discussed. The effect of both temperature and deformation in the chiral symmetry restoration process as well as in the pion properties is studied.
