Abstract: We consider the N-components 3-dimensional massive Gross-Neveu model compactified in one spatial direction, the system being constrained to a slab of thickness L. We derive a closed formula for the renormalized L-dependent four-point function at vanishing external momenta in the large-N limit (the effective coupling constant), using bag-model boundary conditions. For values of the fixed coupling constant in absence of boundaries lambdageqlambdacsimeq19.16, we obtain small-distance asymptotic freedom (for Lo0) and a singularity for a length L(c) such that 2.07m1<L(c)lesssim2.82m1, m being the fermionic mass. Taking for m an average of the masses of the quarks composing the proton, we obtain a "confining" length Lp(c) which is comparable with an estimated proton diameter.
