In this paper a nonrelativistic fermion-fermion effective potential for a three-dimensional massive Thirring model is obtained in a 1/N expansion. We show, by analyzing the Schrödinger equation in the presence of this potential, that the system presents a fermion-fermion bound state for a positive value of the coupling constant g.

The large-N nonlinear O(N) sigma model with the curvature coupled term ξRn2 is examined on a spacetime of R1×S2 topology (three-dimensional static Einstein universe). Making use of the cutoff method, we find the renormalized effective potential which shows that, for ξ>1/8, there is a second-order phase transition. Above the critical curvature, the dynamical mass generation does not take place even in the strong-coupled regime. The phase structure of the model on S2 is also discussed.

Topological aspects of low energy excitations in the form of spin-waves in ferromagnetic systems are studied here. It is pointed out that the generation of spin-waves in three-dimensional Ising fermions can be visualized through the change in chirality. The characteristic features of spin-waves in both the phases of a continuous symmetric XY model are also studied. It is argued that the mass generation of these low energy excitations has a topological origin.
