The Multiplicative Anomaly of Regularized Functional Determinants
It is well known that the vacuum energy related to relativistic quantum fields defined on topological non-trivial manifolds may lead to interesting physical phenomena such as Casimir effects. Within this context, it is crucial the relativistic nature of quantum fields, namely the fact that an infinite number of degrees of freedom is involved. In the one-loop approximation or in the external fie...
متن کاملthe effect of functional/notional approach on the proficiency level of efl learners and its evaluation through functional test
in fact, this study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any difference between the effect of functional/notional approach and the structural approaches to language teaching on the proficiency test of efl learners? 2. can a rather innovative language test referred to as "functional test" ge devised so so to measure the proficiency test of efl learners, and thus be as much reliable an...
15 صفحه اولIs the multiplicative anomaly relevant ?
Abstract: In a recent work, S. Dowker has shed doubt on a recipe used in computing the partition function for a matrix valued operator. This recipe, advocated by Benson, Bernstein and Dodelson, leads naturally to the so called multiplicative anomaly for the zeta-function regularized functional determinants. In this letter we present arguments in favour of the mentioned prescription, showing tha...
متن کاملMultiplicative anomaly and zeta factorization
Some aspects of the multiplicative anomaly of zeta determinants are investigated. A rather simple approach is adopted and, in particular, the question of zeta function factorization, together with its possible relation with the multiplicative anomaly issue is discussed. We look primordially into the zeta functions instead of the determinants themselves, as was done in previous work. That provid...
متن کاملRegularization schemes and the multiplicative anomaly
Elizalde, Vanzo, and Zerbini have shown that the effective action of two free Euclidean scalar fields in flat space contains a ‘multiplicative anomaly’ when ζfunction regularization is used. This is related to the Wodzicki residue. I show that there is no anomaly when using a wide range of other regularization schemes and that the anomaly can be removed by an unusual choice of renormalization s...
