We discuss the boundary effect of anomaly-induced action in two-dimensional spacetime, which is ignored in previous studies. Anomaly-induced action, which gives the stress tensor with the same trace as the trace anomaly, can be represented…

Building on general formulas obtained from the approximate renormalized effective action, the stress-energy tensor of the quantized massive spinor and vector fields in the spacetime of the regular black hole is constructed. Such a black…

The conformal anomaly in curved spacetime with antisymmetric torsion is reconsidered, taking into account new important details. We formulate, for the first time, the covariant solution of the anomaly-induced effective action. The covariant…

Vacuum expectation values of the energy-momentum tensor for a conformally coupled scalar field is investigated in de Sitter (dS) spacetime in presence of a curved brane on which the field obeys the Robin boundary condition with coordinate…

We investigate the effects of quantum backreaction on the Schwarzschild geometry in the semiclassical approximation. The renormalized stress-energy tensor (RSET) of a scalar field is modelled via an order reduction of the analytical…

The appearance of the inertial vacuum state in Rindler frame has been extensively studied in the literature, both from the point of view of QFT developed using Rindler foliation and using the response of an Unruh-Dewitt Detector (UDD). In…

We show that typicality holds for a class of nonequilibrium systems, i.e., nonequilibrium steady states (NESSs): almost all the pure states properly sampled from a certain Hilbert space well represent a NESS and characterize its intrinsic…

We show that the repulsive effects associated to the zero-point energies of quantum fields are capable of supporting ultracompact stars that overcome the compactness limits present in general relativity for any object in hydrostatic…

We present the details for the covariant renormalization of the stress tensor for vacuum tensor perturbations at the level of the effective action, adopting Hadamard regularization techniques to isolate short distance divergences and gauge…

The vacuum expectation value of the surface energy-momentum tensor is evaluated for a massless scalar field obeying mixed boundary condition on an infinite plate moving by uniform proper acceleration through the Fulling-Rindler vacuum. The…

Vacuum energy density and stresses are investigated for a scalar field in de Sitter spacetime with an arbitrary number of toroidally compactified spatial dimensions and in anti-de Sitter spacetime with two parallel branes. On the branes the…

Continuing a program of examining the behavior of the vacuum expectation value of the stress tensor in a background which varies only in a single direction, we here study the electromagnetic stress tensor in a medium with permittivity…

We develop a number of novel "black-bounce" spacetimes. These are specific regular black holes where the "area radius" always remains non-zero, thereby leading to a "throat" that is either timelike (corresponding to a traversable wormhole),…

We study a discrete-space model of active matter with excluded volume. Particles are restricted to the sites of a triangular lattice, and can assume one of three orientations. Varying the density and noise intensity, Monte Carlo simulations…

The possibility that the vacuum energy density (VED) could be time dependent in the expanding Universe is intuitively more reasonable than just a rigid cosmological constant for the entire cosmic history. The framework of the running vacuum…

Rayleigh-Taylor (RT) instability commonly arises in compressible systems with time-dependent acceleration in practical applications. To capture the complex dynamics of such systems, a two-component discrete Boltzmann method is developed to…

An effective description of an initial state is a method for representing the signatures of new physics in the short-distance structure of a quantum state. The expectation value of the energy-momentum tensor for a field in such a state…

Much of the current work on reinforcement learning studies episodic settings, where the agent is reset between trials to an initial state distribution, often with well-shaped reward functions. Non-episodic settings, where the agent must…

We compute the two-point function and the renormalized expectation value of the stress tensor of a quantum field interacting with a nucleating bubble. Two simple models are considered. One is the massless field in the Vilenkin-Ipser-Sikivie…

Vacuum-energy calculations with ideal reflecting boundaries are plagued by boundary divergences, which presumably correspond to real (but finite) physical effects occurring near the boundary. Our working hypothesis is that the stress tensor…
