Meson effects on the chiral symmetry breaking and restoration
Based on the self-consistent chiral symmetric scheme of the SU(2) Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model, the meson effects have been investigated on the chiral symmetry breaking vacuum and chiral symmetry restoration by exactly calculating the next-to-leading (NLO) order Feynman diagrams in the 1/Nc expansion.

Nuclear Effects on Charmonium Production
$J/\psi$ and $\psi'$ production cross sections in fixed-target experiment is calculated, considering the contributions from both color-singlet and color-octet mechanisms.The results are applied to the investigations of the $J/\psi$ suppression and the $\psi'/\psi$ ratio problems in p-A collisions. The results agree with the experimental data as the $(c \bar c)-$nucleon absorption cross sections $\sigma_{abs}^8\simeq 10mb $ for $(c \bar c)_8$ and $\sigma_{abs}^1\simeq 0mb $ for $(c \bar c)_1$. The model is further used to investigate A-A collisions when comover absorption mechanism is also considered. It is found that the observed experiment data of $J/\psi$ and $\psi'/\psi$ ratio in S-U collisions and Pb-Pb collisions can not be explained consistently within this model. The possibility of QGP formation in S-U and Pb-Pb collisions is also discussed.

A model for the peripheral process in ultrarelativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions
A model for the peripheral process in ultrarelativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions is proposed to explain the first experimental results of interactions of oxygen nuclei in nuclear emulsions at the highest energy now available. The fraction of the interactions producing `white' stars and the mean value of NH for different incident energies and colliding nuclei are given.

Massive meson fluctuation in NJL model
Based on the self-consistent scheme beyond the mean-field approximation in the large N-c expansion, including current quark mass explicitly, a general scheme of SU(2) NJL model is developed. To ensure the quark self-energy expanded in the proper order of N-c, an approximate internal meson propagator is deduced, which is in order of O(1/N-c). In our scheme, adopting the method of external momentum expansion, all the Feynman diagrams are calculated in a unified way by only expanding the quark propagator. Our numerical results show that, different from the mean-field approximation in which the explicitly chiral symmetry breaking is invisible, the effect of finite pion mass can be seen clearly when beyond the mean-field approximation.

Dimension of the Universe.
The dynamical evolution of the Universe is represented by the wave packet of Hartle and Hawking's ''ground state.'' Its most probable trajectory arises by a quantum tunneling from a gravitational instanton. We discuss the dimensionality of the Universe within the framework of eleven-dimensional supergravity as a true Kaluza-Klein theory. By using some minisuperspace ansatz, it is proved that only S/sub 4/ x S/sub 7/ instantons are possible. From the viewpoint of quantum cosmology, it seems that the main reason the apparent spacetime is four-dimensional is simply that there does not exist any gravitational instanton without a four-dimensional sector in the theory.
