The renormalization program in every renormalized theory should be run consistently with the type of boundary condition imposed on quantum fields. To maintain this consistency, the counterterms usually appear in the position-dependent form.…
We study the relative zeta function for the couple of operators $A_0$ and $A_\alpha$, where $A_0$ is the free unconstrained Laplacian in $L^2(\mathbf{R}^d)$ ($d \geq 2$) and $A_\alpha$ is the singular perturbation of $A_0$ associated to the…
