We consider the vacuum energy for a scalar field subject to a frequency dependent boundary condition. The effect of a frequency cut-off is described in terms of an {\it incomplete} $\zeta$-function. The use of the Debye asymptotic expansion…
In this paper, we first characterize the finiteness of fractal interpolation functions (FIFs) on post critical finite self-similar sets. Then we study the Laplacian of FIFs with uniform vertical scaling factors on Sierpinski gasket (SG). As…

We investigate spectral functionals associated with Dirac and Laplace-type differential operators on manifolds, defined via the Wodzicki residue, extending classical results for Dirac operators derived from the Levi-Civita connection to…
The method of spectral decimation is applied to an infinite collection of self--similar fractals. The sets considered belong to the class of nested fractals, and are thus very symmetric. An explicit construction is given to obtain formulas…
We study the spectral zeta functions of the Laplacian on fractal sets which are locally self-similar fractafolds, in the sense of Strichartz. These functions are known to meromorphically extend to the entire complex plane, and the locations…
The construction of a Laplacian on a class of fractals which includes the Sierpinski gasket ({\bf $SG$}) has given rise to an intensive research on analysis on fractals. For instance, a complete theory of polynomials and power series on…
We present a new approach to the theory of k-forms on self-similar fractals. We work out the details for two examples, the standard Sierpinski gasket and the 3-dimensional Sierpinski gasket, but the method is expected to be effective for…
A fractafold, a space that is locally modeled on a specified fractal, is the fractal equivalent of a manifold. For compact fractafolds based on the Sierpinski gasket, it was shown by the first author how to compute the discrete spectrum of…
In this paper, we establish an analogue of the classical mean value property for both the harmonic functions and some general functions in the domain of the Laplacian on the Sierpinski gasket. Furthermore, we extend the result to some other…
A technique for evaluating the electromagnetic Casimir energy in situations involving spherical or circular boundaries is presented. Zeta function regularization is unambiguously used from the start and the properties of Bessel and related…
We give the first example of a connected 4-regular graph whose Laplace operator's spectrum is a Cantor set, as well as several other computations of spectra following a common ``finite approximation'' method. These spectra are simple…
We write the spectral zeta function of the Laplace operator on an equilateral metric graph in terms of the spectral zeta function of the normalized Laplace operator on the corresponding discrete graph. To do this, we apply a relation…
We introduce hybrid fractals as a class of fractals constructed by gluing several fractal pieces in a specific manner and study energy forms and Laplacians on them. We consider in particular a hybrid based on the $3$-level Sierpinski…
An important class of fractional differential and integral operators is given by the theory of fractional calculus with respect to functions, sometimes called $\Psi$-fractional calculus. The operational calculus approach has proved useful…
A form of the Laplace transform is reviewed as a paradigm for an entire class of fractional functional transforms. Various of its properties are discussed. Such transformations should be useful in application to differential/integral…
We present a rigorous scheme that makes it possible to compute eigenvalues of the Laplace operator on hyperbolic surfaces within a given precision. The method is based on an adaptation of the method of particular solutions to the case of…
In this article, we define fractal operators motivated by the works of Barnsley and Navascu\'es on various function spaces such as energy space, Lebesgue space, and oscillation space on the well-known fractal domain Sierpi\'nski gasket. We…
We use zeta function techniques to give a finite definition for the Casimir energy of an arbitrary ultrastatic spacetime with or without boundaries. We find that the Casimir energy is intimately related to, but not identical to, the…
The spectral zeta function of the Laplacian on self-similar fractal sets has been previously studied and shown to meromorphically extend to the complex plane. In this work we establish under certain conditions a relationship between the…
