The structure of vacuum is studied in two- and four-dimensional fermion models by means of a resolution-dependent analysis which is proposed by Ezawa and Iwazaki. We first make the resolution-dependent analysis of the Gross-Neveu model based on the mean field expansion technique. Then we generalize this method to four dimensional models. As fermion models in two and four dimensions, we analyze a discrete and a continuous chiral invariant model (the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model). In these models, we find that the discrete or the continuous symmetry breakdown occurs dynamically only at a long distance scale. The vacuum undergoes a second order phase transition in resolution R; for R<R_c (a critical resolution) the vacuum is in a disordered phase while for R>R_c it is in an ordered phase. In four dimensions resolution R has a lower limit R_p^<-1>=Λ (a cutoff parameter) because the four-dimensional fermion models are cutoff dependent theories.
