These numerical solutions show that the propagator behaves very differently in the Landau gauge domain and in the infrared energy region outside it.By using the propagators in the Nambu and Wigner phases under various gauges it is further investigated how the fermion equivalent pressure difference and fermion condensation change with the gauge parameters.These results indicate that the phase transition described by the CJT equivalent potential and the chiral phase transition described by the chiral condensation are not completely identical.展开更多
