We derive a new lower bound for the ground state energy $E^{\rm F}(N,S)$ of N fermions with total spin S in terms of binding energies $E^{\rm F}(N-1,S \pm 1/2)$ of (N-1) fermions. Numerical examples are provided for some simple short-range…

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…
The free scalar field is studied on the Y-junction of three semi infinite axes which is the simplest example of a non-manifold space. It is shown that under an assumption that the junction point can not gain a macroscopic amount of energy…

The present study examines the mathematical properties of the free-free ( f-f) matrix elements of the full electric field operator, of the multipolar Hamiltonian. Special methods are developed and applied for their computation, for the…
We study a system of self-gravitating massive fermions in the framework of the general-relativistic Thomas-Fermi model. We postulate the free energy functional and show that its extremization is equivalent to solving the Einstein's field…

Results from spectral geometry such as Weyl's formula can be used to relate the thermodynamic properties of a free massless field to the spatial manifold on which it is defined. We begin by calculating the free energy in two cases:…
We study perturbative behavior of free energies on a d-dimensional sphere S^d for theories with marginal interactions. The free energies are interpreted as the "dilaton effective action" with the dilaton having a nontrivial background…
