High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-11-07 v1

Abstract

The multiplicative anomaly related to the functional regularized determinants involving products of elliptic operators is introduced and some of its properties discussed. Its relevance concerning the mathematical consistency is stressed. With regard to its possible physical relevance, some examples are illustrated.
