Description
The NJL model is an effective model for the strong interaction, which is one of the four fundamental forces in nature [1]. Despite the simplicity of the model, it gives a very good description of some fundamental properties of the underlying theory of quantum chromodynamics, like the dynamical chiral symmetry breaking and its corresponding effective mass generation [2, 3]. Here we propose to use another approach to make the gap equation finite but keeping the momentum integration up to infinity. The alternative approach is based on a subtractive renormalization method and has been applied to the nuclear force with great success [4].
