The effective potential of composite fermion fields in three-dimensional Thirring model in curved spacetime is calculated in linear curvature approximation. The phase transition accompanied by the creation of non-zero chiral invariant bifermionic vector-like condensate is shown to exist. The type of this phase transition is discussed.
The dymamical chiral symmetry breaking in higher- derivative quantum gravity has been investigated on the flat background. The Schwinger- Dyson equations numerical solutions have been found in the ladder approximation. Both two- and four- dimensional cases have been considered. The dymamical fermion mass generation accompanied by the second- order phase transition has been shown to take place in a different gauges.
