  Inspired by recent work on inhomogeneous chiral condensation in cold, dense
quark matter within models featuring quark degrees of freedom, we investigate
the chiral density-wave solution in nu- clear matter at zero temperature and
nonvanishing baryon number density in the framework of the so-called extended
linear sigma model (eLSM). The eLSM is an effective model for the strong
interaction based on the global chiral symmetry of quantum chromodynamics
(QCD). It contains scalar, pseudoscalar, vector, and axial-vector mesons as
well as baryons. In the latter sector, the nucleon and its chiral partner are
introduced as parity doublets in the mirror assignment. The eLSM simultaneously
provides a good description of hadrons in vacuum as well as nuclear matter
ground-state properties. We find that an inhomogeneous phase in the form of a
chiral density wave is realized, but only for densities larger than 2.4
{\rho}0, where {\rho}0 is the nuclear matter ground-state density.
