We consider the thermodynamics of chiral models in the mean-field approximation and discuss the relevance of the (frequently omitted) fermion vacuum loop. Within the chiral quark-meson model and its Polyakov loop extended version, we show that the fermion vacuum fluctuations can change the order of the phase transition in the chiral limit and strongly influence physical observables. We compute the temperature-dependent effective potential and baryon number susceptibilities in these models, with and without the vacuum term, and explore the cutoff and the pion mass dependence of the susceptibilities. Finally, in the renormalized model the divergent vacuum contribution is removed using the dimensional regularization.

Analytic structure of the QCD phase diagram in the complex-temperature plane
Extracts the continuum location of the nearest complex-T singularity from lattice QCD at μ=0 via iterated conformal-Padé and shows its trajectories share the same scaling variables as complex-μ singularities.

Renormalization-Group Invariant Parity-Doublet Model for Nuclear and Neutron-Star Matter
Including baryonic vacuum fluctuations in the parity-doublet model through an RG-invariant mean-field scheme moves the chiral transition to higher densities and turns it into a smooth crossover for most values of the ...

Renormalizing the Quark-Meson-Diquark Model
Renormalized and two RG-consistent versions of the Quark-Meson-Diquark model reproduce the BCS relation and Stefan-Boltzmann limit at high density, while the sigma-delta scheme violates the BCS relation.

Renormalization group invariant mean-field model for QCD at finite isospin density
A renormalization-group invariant mean-field quark-meson model with one fitted scale reproduces lattice QCD thermodynamics at finite isospin density and predicts a multicritical chiral/pion-condensation point in the c...

The nucleon properties in finite temperature and density with Gaussian fluctuations
Gaussian fluctuations make the quark meson model predict a non-monotonic nucleon mass and a faster-growing nucleon radius as temperature and density increase.

How neutron star properties disfavor a nuclear chiral density wave
Within this nucleon-meson model, a chiral density wave in neutron star cores is only stable for equations of state too soft to support observed two-solar-mass pulsars, predicting isotropic cores.

Dissecting the moat regime at low energies I: Renormalization and the phase structure
In the random phase approximation, a convenient renormalization scheme for momentum-dependent meson self-energies shows that the moat regime extent in the QCD phase diagram depends critically on in-medium quark-meson ...

The nucleon properties in finite temperature and density with vector meson
Adding omega vector repulsion to the quark-meson soliton model increases nucleon mass and radius and reduces the energy gap to three free quarks, signaling instability.
