The finite-temperature gap equation is
With , the radial measure obeys , so
As , subtraction of the massless, zero-temperature equation at leaves
The zero-temperature relation with is
Equating the finite parts gives
and therefore
The subtraction is a renormalization condition: it trades the cutoff-dependent bare coupling for the physical zero-temperature gap.
