Casimir energy is calculated in the 5D warped system. It is compared with the flat one. The position/ momentum propagator is exploited. A new regularization, called {\it sphere lattice regularization}, is introduced. It is a direct…
Vacuum fluctuations are a fundamental and irremovable property of a quantized electromagnetic field. These fluctuations are the cause of the Casimir effect -- mutual attraction of two electrically neutral metallic plates in vacuum in the…
When one studies the Casimir effect, the periodic (anti-periodic) boundary condition is usually taken to mimic a periodic (anti-periodic) structure for a scalar field living in a flat space with a non-Euclidean topology. However, there…
We analyze the origin and features of localized excitations in a discrete two-dimensional Hamiltonian lattice. The lattice obeys discrete translational symmetry, and the localized excitations exist because of the presence of nonlinearities.…
Electromagnetic properties of hadrons can be computed by lattice simulations of QCD in background fields. We demonstrate new techniques for the investigation of charged hadron properties in electric fields. Our current calculations employ…
Magnetic translation symmetry on a finite periodic square lattice is investigated for an arbitrary uniform magnetic field in arbitrary dimensions. It can be used to classify eigenvectors of the Hamiltonian. The system can be converted to…
In many condensed-matter systems, it is very useful to introduce a quasi-particle approach, which is based on some sort of linearization around a suitable background state. In order to be a systematic and controlled approximation, this…
We evaluate the Casimir energy and force for a massive fermionic field in the geometry of two parallel plates on background of Minkowski spacetime with an arbitrary number of toroidally compactified spatial dimensions. The bag boundary…
We propose a regularized lattice model for quantum gravity purely formulated in terms of fermions. The lattice action exhibits local Lorentz symmetry, and the continuum limit is invariant under general coordinate transformations. The metric…
The Casimir effect describes the attractive force arising due to quantum fluctuations of the vacuum electromagnetic field between closely spaced conducting plates. Traditionally, zeta-regularization is employed in calculations to address…
We investigate in some detail consequences of the effective colour-dielectric formulation of lattice gauge theory using the light-cone Hamiltonian formalism with a transverse lattice. As a quantitative test of this approach, we have…
Stable radius of cylindrical space due to additional repulsion caused by noncommutativity of two-component field values is found.
We consider nonholonomic systems with symmetry possessing a certain type of first integrals that are linear in the velocities. We develop a systematic method for modifying the standard nonholonomic almost Poisson structure that describes…
We discuss a method for regularizing chiral gauge theories. The idea is to formulate the gauge fields on the lattice, while the fermion determinant is regularized and computed in the continuum. A simple effective action emerges which lends…
Vacuum fluctuations produce a force acting on a rigid Casimir cavity in a weak gravitational field. Such a force is here evaluated and is found to have opposite direction with respect to the gravitational acceleration; the order of…
We have computed numerically the Casimir force between two identical pistons inside a very long cylinder, considering different shapes for the pistons. The pistons can be considered as quantum billiards, whose spectrum determines the vacuum…
We propose a new formulation of lattice theory. It is given by a matrix form and suitable for satisfying Leibniz rule on lattice. The theory may be interpreted as a multi-flavor system. By realizing the difference operator as a commutator,…
In this work I apply a recently proposed improvement procedure, originally conceived to reduce finite lattice spacing effects in transfer matrices for dilute Fermi systems, to tuning operators for the calculation of observables. I…
The substantial progress that has been achieved in lattice QCD in the last years is pointed out. I compare the simulation cost and systematic effects of several lattice QCD formulations and discuss a number of topics such as lattice spacing…
The contribution of elliptic fixed points to the scalar Casimir energy on compact quotients of the upper half hyperbolic plane is computed for a propagation operator conformal in three dimensions. The expression involves derivatives of…
