It is considered in this work the phase transition patterns for a coupled two-scalar field system model under the combined effects of finite sizes and temperature. The scalar fields are taken as propagating in a D=4 Euclidean space with the…
The mean square fluctuation and the expectation value of the stress-energy-momentum tensor of a neutral massive scalar field at finite temperature are determined near an infinite plane Dirichlet wall, and also near an infinite plane Neumann…
The zero temperature effective equation of motion is derived for a scalar field interacting with other fields. For a broad range of cases, involving interaction with as few as one or two fields, dissipative regimes are found for the scalar…
We consider the effects of homogeneous Dirichlet's boundary conditions on two infinite parallel plane surfaces separated by a small distance {\it a}. We find that although spontaneous symmetry breaking does not occur for the theory of a…
Analytical arguments suggest that the Casimir energy in 2+1 dimensions for gauge theories exponentially decays with the distance between the boundaries. The phenomenon has also been observed by non-perturbative numerical simulations. The…
We study the influence of boundary conditions on energy levels of interacting fields in a box and discuss some consequences when we change the size of the box. In order to do this we calculate the energy levels of bound states of a scalar…
We explore the dependence of vacuum energy on the boundary conditions for massive scalar fields in (2 + 1)-dimensional spacetimes. We consider the simplest geometrical setup given by a two-dimensional space bounded by two homogeneous…
In contrast to the infinite chain, the low-temperature expansion of a one-dimensional free-field Ising model has a strong dependence on boundary conditions. I derive explicit formula for the leading term of the expansion both under open and…
We consider the effects of homogeneous Dirichlet's boundary conditions in the scalar electrodynamics with self-interaction. We have found for a critical scale of the compactification length that symmetry is restored and scalar field…
We study the back reaction effect of massless minimally coupled scalar field at finite temperatures in the background of Einstein universe. Substituting for the vacuum expectation value of the components of the energy-momentum tensor on the…
We consider a massive scalar field with arbitrary coupling in $\mathbf{S}^{1}\times \mathbf{S}^{3}$ space, which mimics the thermal expanding universe, and calculate explicitly all relevant thermodynamical functions in the low- and…
We study the effect of boundary conditions on vacuum polarization for charged scalar fields in two space-time dimensions. We find that both Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions lead to screening. In the Dirichlet case, the vacuum…
The complete form of the high-temperature expansion of the one-loop contribution to the free energy of a scalar field on a stationary gravitational background is derived. The explicit expressions for the divergent and finite parts of the…
The boundary effects on the Bose-Einstein condensation of a Bose gas with a nonvanishing chemical potential on an ultra-static space-time are studied. High temperature regime, which is the relevant regime for the relativistic gas, is…
We investigate the vacuum properties of a massless scalar field theory in constrained spatial geometry, namely, the instantaneous appearance of a thick Dirichlet boundary inside a one-dimensional (1D) Dirichlet cavity and divides it into…
Vacuum excitation by time-varying boundary conditions is not only of fundamental importance but also has recently been confirmed in a laboratory experiment. In this paper, we study the vacuum excitation of a scalar field by the…
We construct the gravity background which describes the dual field theory with aging invariance. We choose the decay modes of the bulk scalar field in the internal spectator direction to obtain the dissipative behavior of the boundary…
This paper addresses the interplay between vacuum and thermal local averages for massless scalar radiation near a plane wall of a large cavity where the Dirichlet boundary condition is assumed to hold. The main result is that stable…
We use a functional approach to evaluate the Casimir free energy for a self-interacting scalar field in $d+1$ dimensions, satisfying Dirichlet boundary conditions on two parallel planes. When the interaction is turned off, exact results for…
There often appear coherently oscillating scalar fields in particle physics motivated cosmological scenarios, which may have rich phenomenological consequences. Scalar fields should somehow interact with background thermal bath in order to…
