Fermionic effective action and the pahse estructure of non compact quantum electrodynamics in 2+1 dimensions

Abstract

We study the phase diagram of non compact $QE{D}_3$ using the microcanonical fermionic average method described elsewhere. We present evidence for a continuous phase transition line in the $\beta ,N$ plane, extending down to arbitrarily small flavour number $N$.
