Abstract
The connection between the linear a model and the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio m odel is investigated on the basis of a conventional Hartree-Fock appro ach. As a missing link, an intermediate model is used: a linear sigma model with quarks (including the Dirac sea) but no ''Mexican hat.'' Th is model is particularly convenient to study the conditions for solito n formation and the stability of the soliton when the Dirac sea is inc luded.
