The separation of the chiral and deconfinement phase transitions in the
curved space-time    [PDF]

S. Sasagawa, H. Tanaka

We calculated the chiral condensate and the dressed Polyakov loop in the space-time $R\times S^{3}$ and $R\times H^{3}$. The chiral condensate is the order parameter for the chiral phase transition, and the dressed Polyakov loop is the order parameter for the deconfinement phase transition. When there is a current mass, critical points for the chiral and deconfinement phase transitions are different in the crossover region. We show that the difference is changed by the gravitational effect.
