Abstract
A new formulation is presented to treat thermal fluctuations around the kao n condensate, based on chiral symmetry. Separating the zero mode from the b eginning we perform the imaginary-time path integral to the one loop to get the thermodynamic potential at finite temperature. The role of the Goldsto ne mode in the kaon condensed phase is elucidated in relation to the equati on of state. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
