Euclidean Thermal Green Functions of Photons in Generalized Euclidean Rindler Spaces for any Feynman-like Gauge

چکیده

The thermal Euclidean Green functions for Photons propagating in the Rindler wedge are computed employing an Euclidean approach within any covariant Feynman-like gauge. This is done by generalizing a formula which holds in the Minkowskian case. The coincidence of the found (β = 2π)-Green functions and the corresponding Minkowskian vacuum Green functions is discussed in relation to the remaining static gauge ambiguity already found in previous papers. Further generalizations to more complicated manifolds are discussed. Ward identities are verified in the general case. PACS numbers: 04.62.+v; 11.10.Wx; 11.15.-q

Canonical Quantization of Photons in a Rindler Wedge

Abstract: Photons and thermal photons are studied in the Rindler Wedge employing Feynman’s gauge and canonical quantization. A Gupta-Bleuler-like formalism is explicitly implemented. Non thermal Wightman functions and related (Euclidean and Lorentzian) Green functions are explicitly calculated and their complex time analytic structure is carefully analyzed using the Fulling-Ruijsenaars master f...

Optical approach for the thermal partition function of photons

The optical manifold method to compute the one-loop effective action in a static space-time is extended from the massless scalar field to the Maxwell field in any Feynman-like covariant gauge. The method is applied to the case of the Rindler space obtaining the same results as the point-splitting procedure. The result is free from Kabat’s surface terms which instead affect the ζ-function or hea...

A relationship between scalar Green functions on hyperbolic and Euclidean Rindler spaces

We derive a formula connecting in any dimension the Green function on the D+1 dimensional Euclidean Rindler space and the one for a minimally coupled scalar field with a mass m in the D dimensional hyperbolic space. The relation takes a simple form in the momentum space where the Green functions are equal at the momenta (p0,p) for Rindler and (m, p̂) for hyperbolic space with a simple additive r...

A Note on Hartle-Hawking Vacua

The purpose of this note is to establish the basic properties— regularity at the horizon, time independence, and thermality—of the generalized Hartle-Hawking vacua defined in static spacetimes with bifurcate Killing horizon admitting a regular Euclidean section. These states, for free or interacting fields, are defined by a Euclidean functional integral on half the Euclidean section. The emphas...

$L_1$-Biharmonic Hypersurfaces in Euclidean Spaces with Three Distinct Principal Curvatures

Chen's biharmonic conjecture is well-known and stays open: The only biharmonic submanifolds of Euclidean spaces are the minimal ones. In this paper, we consider an advanced version of the conjecture, replacing $Delta$ by its extension, $L_1$-operator ($L_1$-conjecture). The $L_1$-conjecture states that any $L_1$-biharmonic Euclidean hypersurface is 1-minimal. We prove that the $L_1$-conje...
