INTRODUCTION The phase structure of quark matter on finite temperature and density has actively been studied for decades [1]. Under usual condition, meaning low temperature and density, quarks are confined inside hadrons and they never be able to observed as a single particle. On the other hand, due to the nature of the asymptotic freedom [2], quarks andgluonscanbe freefromthe confinementathightemperatureanddensity,becausethe couplingstrengthbecomes weak at high energy. It is, therefore,expected that quark matter undergoes the confined/deconfinedphase transition at some temperature and density. This is important subject both in theoretical and experimental studies since it crucially relates to the quark matter properties at relativistically high energy collisions and extremely dense stellar objects such as neutron stars. The first principle for quarks and gluons is Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) which is a non-Abelian gauge field theory for fermions. Our goals is to evaluate the phase structure based on this first principle QCD, however, it is difficult to extract theoretical predictions due to the nature of complicated strongly interacting system. One of the mostreliableapproachesistousethediscretisedversionofQCDcalledtheLatticeQCD(LQCD)inwhichtheoretical calculation is performed on the discrete spacetime [3]. Although the LQCD works well at finite temperature T for smallchemicalpotentialµ 0,thereis thetechnicaldifficulty calledthe“signproblem”whenonetriesto investigate ≃ the system at intermediate chemical potential. There effective models maybe nicely adopted because some models can consistently treat the system at finite temperature and chemical potential. Forthesakeofevaluatingthe phasestructureofquarkmatteratfinite temperatureandchemicalpotential,wewill employ the Nambu–Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model [4] which is the most frequently used one in this context (there are a lotofnicereviewpapersonthemodel,see,e.g.[5–9].) Themodelisconstructedbyincorporatingthefourpointquark interactionintothe modelLagrangian,soitisnotrenormalizabledue tothis higherdimensionaloperator. Therefore, the physical predictions of the model inevitably depend on the regularization procedure and the model parameters chosen. The resulting phase diagram on the T µ plane is as well affected by the parameters and regularization − prescriptions. Soitis animportantissueto studywhether the phasestructure obtainedinoneregularizationmethod is consistent with the ones from different regularizationmethods. Inthispaper,wearegoingtostudythephasestructureofquarkmatterintheNJLmodelwithvariousregularization ways,whicharethreedimensional(3D)momentumcutoff,fourdimensional(4D)momentumcutoff,Pauli-Villars(PV) regularization,proper-time(PT)regularization,andthedimensionalregularization(DR).The3Dcutoffschemeisthe most popular method in this model and a lot of works have been done in this way. The 4D cutoff method preserves the Lorentzsymmetryinwhichspaceandtime aretreatedonequalfooting. The Pauli-Villarsregularizationis based on the subtraction of the amplitude considering the virtually heavy particle to suppress the unphysical high energy contribution coming from loop integrals [10–12]. The proper-time regularization makes integrals finite through the exponentiallydumping factor[11,13]. Thedimensionalregularizationanalyticallycontinuesthe spacetimedimension in the loop integralsto a non-integer value, then try to obtain finite contribution fromthe integrals [14]. Beside from the frequently used3Dcutoff way,there havebeena lotofworksby using the 4D[6,7], PV[6,15–17], PT [6,18–26], and DR [27–32]. The physical consequences depend on the regularization[33]. This paper is organized as follows; Section II introduces the model Lagrangian,and show the model treatment on the meson properties and the explicit formalismat finite temperature and chemicalpotential. In Sec. III, we present various regularization procedures, 3D, 4D, PV, PT and DR prescriptions with explicit equations. We then perform the parameter fitting in Sec. IV. In Sec. V, the numerical results of the meson properties are shown. We then draw the phase diagrams with several parameter sets using various regularization methods in Sec. VI. We also study the phase diagram with the parameters fixed under the condition with the same constituent quark mass in Sec. VII. In Sec. VIII, we give the discussions on the obtained results. Finally, we write the concluding remarks in Sec. IX. Several detailed calculations are shown in Appendix. II. TWO FLAVOR NJL MODEL In this paper we consider two light quarks with equal mass. The model has SU (2) SU (2) flavor symmetry at L R ⊗ the massless limit, m 0. → A. The Lagrangian and gap equation The Lagrangianof the two flavor NJL model is given by =ψ¯(i∂ mˆ)ψ+G (ψ¯ψ)2+(ψ¯iγ τaψ)2 , (1) 5 L 6 − (cid:2) (cid:3) 3 where mˆ is the diagonal mass matrix mˆ = diag(m ,m ) and G is the effective coupling strength of the four point u d interaction. We set m =m in this paper. The application of the mean-field approximation d u σ ψψ (2) h i≃−2G leads the following mean-field Lagrangian σ2 ˜=ψ¯(i∂ m∗)ψ , (3) L 6 − − 4G with the constituent mass m∗ = m +σ. The flavor symmetry is broken down, SU (2) SU (2) SU (2), by u L R L+R ⊗ → non-vanishing current quark mass, m , and dynamically generated σ. Thanks to the simple form of the Lagrangian, u one can easily evaluate the effective potential, = lnZ/V where Z is the partition function eff V − Z = [ψ]exp i d4x ˜ (4) D L Z (cid:20) Z (cid:21) and V is the volume of the system. After some algebra,we see σ2 d4k ∗ (σ)= lndet(k m ). (5) Veff 4G − i(2π)4 6 − Z The detailed derivation of the effective potential is presented in [9]. The gap equation is obtained through the extreme condition of the potential with respect to σ, namely, ∂ eff V =0. (6) ∂σ This condition leads the following gap equation ∗ σ =2N G itrS(m ), (7) f · with the number of flavors N and f d4k 1 ∗ itrS(m )= tr , (8) − i(2π)4 k m∗+iε Z 6 − wheretracetakesthe spinorandcolorindices. This is the keyequationinthe modelbecauseit determinesthe values of the chiral condensate ψψ and the constituent quark mass m∗. h i B. Meson properties The propertiesofthe pionandsigmamesoncanbe studiedbasedonthe modelwith the determinedchiralconden- sate. The interacting Lagrangianof the pion and quarks is written by =ig ψ¯γ τ πψ, (9) πqq πqq 5 L · where τ are 2 2 matrices in the flavor space and πi represent the pion fields. The explicit expression is τ π = i τ−π−+τ+π++×τ0π0, with τ± =(τ1 τ2)/√2 and τ0 =τ3 where τi are the Pauli matrices. · ± Byapplyingtherandomphaseapproximation,wecanwritethepionpropagatorasthesummationofthegeometrical series of the one-loop diagram, which gives g2 2G ∆ (p2)= πqq , (10) π p2 m2 ≃ 1 2GΠπ(p2) − π − where Ππ is the following quark loop contribution d4k Ππ(p2)= 2 tr[γ S(k)γ S(k p)], (11) − i(2π)4 5 5 − Z with the quark propagator 1 S(k)= . (12) k m∗+iǫ 6 − 4 TheexplicitderivationofEq.(10)isdiscussedinthereviewpaper[6]. Thepionmassiscalculatedatthepoleposition of the propagator,so the condition reads 1 2GΠπ(p2) =0.

(14) πqq ∂p2 (cid:18) (cid:19) (cid:12)p2=m2π (cid:12) In the similar manner, the sigma meson mass is evaluated at(cid:12)the pole of the propagator, (cid:12) g2 2G ∆ (p2)= σqq , (15) σ p2 m2 ≃ 1 2GΠσ(p2) − σ − with d4k Πσ(p2)= 2 tr[S(k)S(k p)].

(19) π 2 i(2π)4 5 πqq 5 − Z Thus the equations Eqs.(13), (17) and (19) are the ones whichdetermine the pionmass, sigmamass, andthe pion decay constant. C. Explicit formalism at finite temperature Since our purpose is to study the phase structure on temperature T and chemical potential µ, we need to extend the equations to finite temperature. According to the imaginary time formalism, the integral region of the temporal component becomes finite due to the periodic or anti-periodic condition of fields as β Z = [ψ]exp dτ d3x ˜+µψ¯γ ψ . (20) 0 Z D "Z0 Z (cid:16)L (cid:17)# where τ is imaginary time and β is the inverse temperature 1/T. Consequently, continuous integral in the temporal direction is replaced by the following discrete summation, ∞ d4k d3k F(k ,k) T F(iω +µ,k), (21) i(2π)4 0 → (2π)3 n Z n=−∞Z X where ω = 2nπT or (2n+1)πT depending on the statistical property of field, i.e., for bosons or fermions, and the n chemical potential seen in Eq. (20) appears in the way iω +µ. In this paper, we only treat fermionic quark loop n contributions then ω =(2n+1)πT is always the case. n With the help of the formalism Eq.(21), we see that the gap equation at finite temperature becomes σ =2N G [trS0+trST], (22) f · d3k 1 trS0 = N m∗ , (23) − c (2π)32E Z d3k 1 trST =N m∗ f(E±) , (24) c (2π)32E Z " ± # X 5 whereN is the number ofcolors,E =√k2+m∗2, E± =E µ andf(E)=1/(1+eβE). Itis importantto note that c the contributionscanbe expressedbythe summationofthe±T independentpart(trS0)andT dependentpart(trST). This characteristic is general if one takes the infinite number of the frequency summation in finite temperature field theory and crucial when we apply the regularization procedures to the appearing integrals. Since the gap equation is derived by differentiating the effective potential with respect to σ, then the effective potential can be obtained by integrating the gap equation (see, for example, [35]), σ2 σ ′ ′ (σ)= N dσ itrS(m +σ ). (25) f u V 4G − Z0 wherewehavedroppedthesuffixin andjustwritten fornotationalsimplicity. Thereaftertheeffectivepotential eff at finite temperature = σ+ 0+V T is evaluated as V V V V V σ2 σ = , (26) V 4G d3k 0 = 2N N E, (27) V − f c (2π)3 Z T = 2N N T d3k ln 1+e−βE± . (28) V − f c (2π)3 Z X± h i It is important to note that, if we apply some regularizations,the results between the direct calculationfrom Eq. (5) and the one after integrating the gap equation may become different, because regularization essentially means the subtraction and there are several ways of subtractions. Therefore, in this paper, we persistently use the latter way shown in Eq. (25) so that the model treatment becomes consistent. It should be noticed that the finite temperature correction, T, contains no divergent integral. A finite result can be obtained for the finite temperature correction V without applying any regularizations. Next, we carry on the integral in the meson properties; the one loop contribution can be written as 2trS Ππ(p2)= +p2I(p2), (29) − m∗ with d4k 1 I(p2)=4N . (30) c i(2π)4(k2 m∗2)[(k p)2 m∗2] Z − − − Since trS is already evaluated above, the remaining task is to calculate I(=I0+IT), and it becomes d3k 1 I0(p2)=4N , (31) c (2π)3E(4E2 p2) Z − IT(p2)= 4N d3k ±f(E±) . (32) − c (2π)3E(4E2 p2) Z P − Similarly, the one-loop diagram of the scalar channel can be written as 2trS Πσ(p2)= +(p2 4m∗2)I(p2). (33) − m∗ − We now have already evaluated all the ingredients of Πσ above in Eqs. (23), (24), (31) and (32), so we do not need further calculations. Finally, let us derive the equation for the pion decay constant. After a bit of algebra we obtain the relation, ∗ f =g m I(0). (34) π πqq Here we evaluate f at p2 =0 following [6]. π III. REGULARIZATION PROCEDURES Since the integrals obtained in the previous section include infinities, we need to apply some regularizationso that the model leads finite quantities. As mentioned in the introduction, the model is not renormalizable,then the model predictions inevitably depend on regularization procedures chosen. Here, we shall present possible regularization methods in this section. 6 A. Three dimensional cutoff scheme The idea of the three dimensional (3D) cutoff is simple; one drops high frequency mode by introducing the cutoff scale Λ into the integrals. We work in the 3-dimensional polar coordinate system and cut the radial coordinate as 3D d4k dk Λ3Dk2dk 0 dΩ . (35) (2π)4 → 2π (2π)3 3 Z Z Z0 Z By performing the integrals, we have for the gap equation σ =2N GtrS, f N m∗ Λ + Λ2 +m∗2 trS0 = c Λ Λ2 +m∗2 m∗2ln 3D 3D , (36) 3D 2π2 3D 3D − pm∗ ! q N m∗ Λ3D k2 trST = c dk f(E±) .

(41) 3D − π2 Z0 E(4E2−p2)" ± # X Note that the integraldiverges around4E2 p2, and we apply the principal integralto avoidthis divergence [34]. It may be worth mentioning that the integral≃can be performed analytically when p2 = 0 for T = 0, then one has for the pion decay constant, N m∗2 Λ Λ + Λ2 +m∗2 f2 = c 3D +ln 3D 3D . (42) π3D 2π2 − Λ23D+m∗2 pm∗ ! We thus obtain the required quantities in evalupating the phase diagram and meson properties. B.

Proper-time regularization The basic idea of the proper-time regularization is based on the following manipulation of the Gamma function, ∞ 1 1 dτ τn−1e−Aτ, (60) An → Γ[n]Z1/Λ2PT where the lower cut 1/Λ2 induces the dumping factor into the original propagator since, for example with n=1, PT ∞ 1 dτe−Aτ = 1 e−(kE2+m∗2)/Λ2PT.

MODEL PARAMETERS Havingobtainedtheequationwhichdeterminesthepionmassandpiondecayconstant,wearenowreadytoperform the parameter fitting. In the previous section we suppose that all the cutoff scales are equal in each regularization to reduce the parameters. Thus the model has three parameters: the cutoff scale Λ, the current quark mass m and u the coupling strength G. Whereas in the DR there appears one more parameter, so the total number becomes four: the currentmassm , dimensionD, scaleparameterM andthe coupling G, asdiscussed inRef. [36]. In this section, u 0 we shall set the model parameters by fitting the pion mass and decay constant. The actual values we use are shown below m =135MeV, f =94MeV.
