Current theory is able to predict the Casimir force between macroscopic bodies with an accuracy only limited by the knowledge of the material parameters. Yet surprisingly after almost 70 years of research, while theory describes the Casimir…
Multiple scattering formulations have been employed for more than 30 years as a method of studying the quantum vacuum or Casimir interactions between distinct bodies. Here we review the method in the simple context of $\delta$-function…
Casimir energy is a nonlocal effect; its magnitude cannot be deduced from heat kernel expansions, even those including the integrated boundary terms. On the other hand, it is known that the divergent terms in the regularized (but not yet…
Various applications of the multiple scattering technique to calculating Casimir energy are described. These include the interaction between dilute bodies of various sizes and shapes, temperature dependence, interactions with multilayered…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and a fixed invertible element $q^{\frac{1}{2}}$, and suppose $q+q^{-1}$ is invertible in $R$. For each planar surface $\Sigma_{0,n+1}$, we present its Kauffman bracket skein algebra over $R$ by…

This work is a continuation of our papers from the last couple of years on the Casimir friction for a pair of particles at low relative velocity. The new element in the present analysis is to allow the media to be dense. Then the situation…
