Lattice-fermionic Casimir effect and topological insulators

T Ishikawa, K Nakayama, K Suzuki - Physical Review Research, 2021 - APS
The Casimir effect arises from the zero-point energy of particles in momentum space
deformed by the existence of two parallel plates. For degrees of freedom on the lattice, its …

Quantum vacuum, rotation, and nonlinear fields

A Flachi, M Edmonds - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
In this paper, we extend previous results on the quantum vacuum or Casimir energy, for a
noninteracting rotating system and for an interacting nonrotating system, to the case where …

Sign flip in the Casimir force for interacting fermion systems

A Flachi, M Nitta, S Takada, R Yoshii - Physical review letters, 2017 - APS
In this work we consider a fermionic chain of finite length ℓ. Fermions are allowed to interact
and are forced to obey boundary conditions, thus altering the process of condensation. Our …

Strongly interacting fermions and phases of the Casimir effect

A Flachi - Physical review letters, 2013 - APS
With the intent of exploring how the interplay between boundary effects and chiral symmetry
breaking may alter the thermodynamical behavior of a system of strongly interacting …

Geometrically confined thermal field theory: Finite size corrections and phase transitions

S Mogliacci, I Kolbé, WA Horowitz - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
Motivated by evidence for quark-gluon plasma signatures in small systems, we study a
simple model of a massless, noninteracting scalar field confined with Dirichlet boundary …

Casimir effect for nucleon parity doublets

T Ishikawa, K Nakayama, K Suzuki - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
Finite-volume effects for the nucleon chiral partners are studied within the framework of the
parity-doublet model. Our model includes the vacuum energy shift for nucleons, which is the …

Fermionic vacuum currents in topologically nontrivial braneworlds: Two-brane geometry

S Bellucci, AA Saharian, HG Sargsyan, VV Vardanyan - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
The vacuum expectation value (VEV) of the fermionic current density is investigated in the
geometry of two parallel branes in locally AdS spacetime with a part of spatial dimensions …

[HTML][HTML] Casimir effect for lattice fermions

T Ishikawa, K Nakayama, K Suzuki - Physics Letters B, 2020 - Elsevier
We propose a definition of the Casimir energy for free lattice fermions. From this definition,
we study the Casimir effects for the massless or massive naive fermion, Wilson fermion, and …

Ground state modulations in the model

A Flachi, G Fucci, M Nitta, S Takada, R Yoshii - Physical Review D, 2019 - APS
In this work we examine a system consisting of a confined one-dimensional arrangement of
atoms that we describe by using the 2-dimensional CPN-1 model, restricted to an interval …

Nonperturbative Casimir effects in field theories: aspects of confinement, dynamical mass generation and chiral symmetry breaking

MN Chernodub, VA Goy, AV Molochkov - arXiv preprint arXiv:1901.04754, 2019 - arxiv.org
The Casimir effect is a quantum phenomenon rooted in the fact that vacuum fluctuations of
quantum fields are affected by the presence of physical objects and boundaries. Since the …
