We obtain a q-deformed algebra version of the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model gap
equation. In this framework we discuss some hadronic properties such as the
dynamical mass generated for the quarks, the pion decay constant and the p
hase transition present in this model. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Scien
