There has been much recent interest in the finite-temperature effective potential of the standard model in the context of the electroweak phase transition. We review the calculation of the effective potential with particular emphasis on the validity of the expansions that are used. The presence of a term that is cubic in the Higgs condensate in the one-loop effective potential appears to indicate a first-order electroweak phase transition. However, in the high-temperature regime, the infrared singularities inherent in massless models produce cubic terms that are of the same order in the coupling. In this paper, we discuss the inclusion of an infinite set of these terms via the ring-diagram summation, and show that the standard model has a first-order phase transition in the weak coupling expansion.

AbstractUsing the Gaussian effective potential approach, φ6 soliton solutions at finite temperature are studied for both the general case and the particular case λ2 = 2ξm2. A critical temperature is found at which soliton solutions cease to exist. The effective potential together with the mass-gap equation are studied in detail, and comparison with existing work on this subject is made

We discuss phase structure of chiral symmetry breaking of the D-dimensional (2≤D≤3) Gross–Neveu model at finite temperature, density and constant curvature. We evaluate the effective potential in a weak background approximation to thermalize the model as well as in the leading order of the 1/N-expansion. A third-order critical line is observed similarly to the D=2 case.
