We study, through zeta-function techniques, the vacuum energies for Dirac fields in a constant magnetic background. We consider the combined effect of the background and twisted boundary conditions. The required charge renormalization is…
It has been shown that an improved estimation of quantum vacuum energy can yield not only acceptable but also experimentally sensible results. The very idea consists in a straightforward extraction of gravitationally interacting part of the…
Vacuum polarization corrections to the energy levels of bound electrons are calculated using a perturbative path integral formalism. We apply quantum electrodynamics in a framework which treats the strong binding nuclear field to all…
The Gel'fand-Yaglom theorem has been used to calculate the one-loop effective action in quantum field theory by means of the "partial-wave-cutoff method". This method works well for a wide class of background fields and is essentially…
The first quantum correction to the finite temperature partition function for a self-interacting massless scalar field on a $D-$dimensional flat manifold with $p$ non-commutative extra dimensions is evaluated by means of dimensional…
We compute the vacuum energy of a scalar field rotating with angular velocity $\Omega$ on a disk of radius $R$ and with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The rotation is introduced by a metric obtained by a Galilean transformation from a rest…
Spectral zeta functions $\zeta(s)$ for the massless scalar fields obeying the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions on a surface of an infinite cylinder are constructed. These functions are defined explicitly in a finite domain of the…
In this work we consider the generalized zeta function method to obtain temperature corrections to the vacuum (Casimir) energy density, at zero temperature, associated with quantum vacuum fluctuations of a scalar field subjected to a helix…
We postulate the existence of a self-adjoint operator associated to a system with countably infinite number of degrees of freedom whose spectrum is the sequence of the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function. We assume that it…
Values for the vacuum energy of scalar fields under Dirichlet and Neuman boundary conditions on an infinite clylindrical surface are found, and they happen to be of opposite signs. In contrast with classical works, a complete zeta function…
We derive rigorously explicit formulas of the Casimir free energy at finite temperature for massless scalar field and electromagnetic field confined in a closed rectangular cavity with different boundary conditions by zeta regularization…
We calculate, in a class of Gauge invariant functionals, by variational methods, the difference of vacuum energy between two different backgrounds: Schwarzschild and Flat Space. We perform this evaluation in an Hamiltonian formulation of…
The vacuum energy is computed for a scalar field in a noncommutative background in several models of noncommutative geometry. One may expect that the noncommutativity introduces a natural cutoff on the ultraviolet divergences of field…
I present a partly pedagogic discussion of the Gel'fand-Yaglom formula for the functional determinant of a one-dimensional, second order difference operator, in the simplest settings. The formula is a textbook one in discrete…
The vacuum energy density of electromagnetic field inside a perfectly conducting wedge is calculated by making use of the local zeta function technique. This regularization completely eliminates divergent expressions in the course of…
In this work we give a few explicit formulas regarding the radiation fields of linear free waves. We then apply these formulas on the channel of energy theory. We characterize all the radial weakly non-radiative solutions in all dimensions…
The quantum Maxwell theory at finite temperature at equilibrium is studied on compact and closed manifolds in both the functional integral- and Hamiltonian formalism. The aim is to shed some light onto the interrelation between the topology…
We discuss some controverted aspects of the evaluation of the thermal energy of a scalar field in a one-dimensional compact space. The calculations are carried out using a generalised zeta function approach.
The principal aim in this paper is to employ a recently developed unified approach to the computation of traces of resolvents and $\zeta$-functions to efficiently compute values of spectral $\zeta$-functions at positive integers associated…
A variant for the Hilbert and Polya spectral interpretation of the Riemann zeta function is proposed. Instead of looking for a self-adjoint linear operator H, whose spectrum coincides with the Riemann zeta zeros, we look for the complex…
