Since the model is not renormalizable in four space-time dimensions, physical results and parameters depend on the regularization method. Following the imaginary time formalism, we introduce the temperature, $T$ and the chemical potential, $μ$. The parameters in the model are fixed by calculating the pion mass and decay constant in the dimensional regularization at $T=μ=0$.28 pages, 9 figures, v2: a few points corrected and references addedHigh Energy Physics - Phenomenology$π$ and $σ$ mesons at finite temperature and density in the NJL model with dimensional regularizationtext
