Boundary effects in quantum field theory

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 1979
Electromagnetic and scalar fields are quantized in the region near an arbitrary smooth boundary, and the renormalized expectation value of the stress-energy tensor is calculated. The energy density is found to diverge as the boundary is approached.

Entanglement properties of boundary state and thermalization

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
We discuss the regularized boundary state e−τ0H|Ba $$ {e}^{-{\tau}_0H}\Big|{\left.B\right\rangle}_a $$ on two aspects in both 2D CFT and higher dimensional free field theory.

Boundary Quantum Field Theory on the Interior of the Lorentz Hyperboloid [PDF]

open access: hybridCommunications in Mathematical Physics, 2012
We construct local, boost covariant boundary QFT nets of von Neumann algebras on the interior of the Lorentz hyperboloid LH = {x^2 - t^2 > R^2, x>0}, in the two-dimensional Minkowski spacetime. Our first construction is canonical, starting with a local conformal net on the real line, and is analogous to our previous construction of local boundary

Quantum field theories with boundaries and novel instabilities [PDF]

open access: greenPhysical Review D, 2014
Quantum physics on manifolds with boundary brings novel aspects due to boundary conditions. One important feature is the appearance of localised negative eigenmodes for the Laplacian on the boundary. These can potentially lead to instabilities. We consider quantum field theories on such manifolds and interpret these as leading to the onset of phase ...

Quantum Field Theory from First Principles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
When quantum fields are studied on manifolds with boundary, the corresponding one-loop quantum theory for bosonic gauge fields with linear covariant gauges needs the assignment of suitable boundary conditions for elliptic differential operators of ...

Conformal boundary conditions, loop gravity and the continuum

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
In this paper, we will make an attempt to clarify the relation between three-dimensional euclidean loop quantum gravity with vanishing cosmological constant and quantum field theory in the continuum.

On the quantum reflection factor for the sinh-Gordon model with general boundary conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The one loop quantum corrections to the classical reflection factor of the sinh-Gordon model are calculated partially for general boundary conditions.
