In this paper, we compute the leading-order and first-order radiative corrections to the Casimir energy of a massive Lorentz-violating scalar field governed by a $\phi^4$ interaction on a network. For simplicity, the network is chosen to…
We study the Casimir problem as the limit of a conventional quantum field theory coupled to a smooth background. The Casimir energy diverges in the limit that the background forces the field to vanish on a surface. We show that this…
