A role of the renormalization group invariance in calculations of the ground state energy for models with confined fermion fields is discussed. The case of the (1+1)D MIT bag with massive fermions is studied in detail.
We evaluate the fermionic Casimir effect associated with a massive fermion confined within a planar (d+1) dimensional slab-bag, on which MIT bag model boundary conditions of standard type, along a single spatial direction, are imposed. A…
In this paper we calculate the Casimir energy for a massive fermionic field confined between two points in one spatial dimension, with the MIT Bag Model boundary condition. We compute the Casimir energy directly by summing over the allowed…
We review a simple technique for evaluating the vacuum energy stemming from non-trivial boundary conditions and review results for the Casimir energy of a massive fermionic field confined in a d+1-dimensional slab-bag and the effect of a…
We find static solitons stabilized by quantum corrections in a (1+1)-dimensional model with a scalar field chirally coupled to fermions. This model does not support classical solitons. We compute the renormalized energy functional including…
We discuss the renormalisation of the ground state energy of massive fields obeying boundary conditions, i.e., of the Casimir effect, and emphasise the role of the mass for its understanding. This is an extended abstract of a talk given at…
The zero-point energy of a massless fermion field in the interior of two parallel plates in a D-dimensional space-time at zero temperature is calculated. In order to regularize the model, a mix between dimensional and zeta-function…
The vacuum energies corresponding to massive Dirac fields with the boundary conditions of the MIT bag model are obtained. The calculations are done with the fields occupying the regions inside and outside the bag, separately. The…
The Casimir energy corresponding to a massive scalar field with Dirichlet boundary conditions on a spherical bag is obtained. The field is considered, separately, inside and outside the bag. The renormalization procedure that is necessary…
We use a functional approach to calculate the Casimir energy due to Dirac fields in interaction with thin, flat, parallel walls, which implement imperfect bag-like boundary conditions. These are simulated by the introduction of delta-like…
We study the ground-state energy of one-dimensional, non-interacting fermions subject to an external potential in the thermodynamic limit. To this end, we fix some (Fermi) energy $\nu>0$, confine fermions with total energy below $\nu$…
We introduce a general, simple and effective method of evaluating the zero point energy of a quantum field under the influence of arbitrary boundary conditions imposed on the field on flat surfaces perpendicular to a chosen spatial…
In the present study, the first-order radiative correction to the Casimir energy for massive and massless scalar fields confined with mixed boundary conditions (Dirichlet-Neumann) between two points in \phi^4 theory was computed. Two issues…
The simple consequences of the renormalization group invariance in calculations of the ground state energy for models of confined quantum fields are discussed. The case of (1+1)D MIT quark bag model is considered in detail.
Effective hadron models commonly require the computation of functional determinants. In the static case these are one--loop vacuum polarization energies, known as Casimir energies. In this talk I will present general methods to efficiently…
The Casimir problem is usually posed as the response of a fluctuating quantum field to externally imposed boundary conditions. In reality, however, no interaction is strong enough to enforce a boundary condition on all frequencies of a…
The ground state energy of a boundary quantum field theory is derived in planar geometry in D+1 dimensional spacetime. It provides a universal expression for the Casimir energy which exhibits its dependence on the boundary conditions via…
We develop a method for computing exact one-loop quantum corrections to the energies of static classical backgrounds in renormalizable quantum field theories. We use a continuum density of states formalism to construct a regularized Casimir…
A novel technique based on Schwinger's proper time method is applied to the Casimir problem of the M.I.T. bag model. Calculations of the regularized vacuum energies of massless scalar and Dirac spinor fields confined to a static and…
In the present study, the zeroth- and first-order radiative correction of the Casimir energy for massive and massless scalar fields, confined with mixed boundary conditions (Dirichlet- Neumann) between two parallel plates in $\phi^4$…
