The $(2+1)$-dimensional Gross-Neveu-Yukawa model at finite temperature, density, and magnetic field within the Functional Renormalization Group
We investigate the phase diagram of the (2+1)-dimensional Gross-Neveu-Yukawa (GNY) model at finite temperature, density, and magnetic field beyond mean-field, using the Functional Renormalization Group (FRG) in the local potential approximation. Large magnetic fields result in magnetic catalysis, a dimensional reduction of the system, and enhancement of chiral symmetry breaking. We employ a hydrodynamical algorithm to solve the FRG flow equation for the effective potential, which allows for go further into the infrared region than with previously used methods. We find that the chiral condensate exhibits non-trivial behavior in various regions of the phase diagram: several first-order phase transitions and de Haas -- van Alphen oscillations at small magnetic field and large chemical potential, as well as a critical endpoint which shifts to higher temperature with increasing magnetic field.
