We study the U(1)-invariant Abelian Higgs model at a finite temperature and a finite chemical potential, at the one-loop level of approximation, and show the existence of chemical-potential-induced multiple-phase transitions at finite temperatures. The temperature and density dependence of the coupling constants is also analyzed. The gauge invariance of the results obtained is demonstrated.

The chiral Abelian Higgs model is studied at finite temperature. By integrating out the heavy modes, we make a three-dimensional effective theory for the static modes. It is demonstrated that the plasma masses are correctly reproduced to leading order in m2/T2. The effective potential for the composite operator ɸ†ɸ is calculated at one-loop for the resulting three-dimensional theory and it is shown that the result is gauge parameter independent. The numerical investigation of the potential reveals that the symmetry is restored via a first-order phase transition. Comparison with the ordinary ring improved potential is made and it is found that the barrier height at Tc is somewhat higher.
