We analyze dynamical chiral symmetry breaking (D chi SB) in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model by using the non-perturbative renormalization group equation. The equation takes the form of a two-dimensional partial differential equation for the multi-fermion effective interactions V (x,t) where x is the (psi) over bar psi operator and t is the logarithm of the renormalization scale. The D chi SB occurs due to the quantum corrections, which means it emerges at some finite t(c) while integrating the equation with respect to t. At t(c) some singularities suddenly appear in V which is compulsory in the spontaneous symmetry breakdown. Therefore there is no solution of the equation beyond t(c). We newly introduce the notion of a weak solution to get the global solution including the infrared limit t -%26gt; infinity and investigate its properties. The obtained weak solution is global and unique, and it perfectly describes the physically correct vacuum even in the case of the first order phase transition appearing in a finite-density medium. The key logic of deduction is that the weak solution we defined automatically convexifies the effective potential when treating the singularities.
