Effects of singular external fields and boundary condition on the vacuum of massless fermions in QFT

arXiv:hep-th/0106077

Abstract

Effects of the configuration of an external static magnetic field in the form of a singular vortex on the vacuum of a quantized massless spinor field are studied. The most general boundary conditions at the punctured singular point which make the twodimensional Dirac Hamiltonian to be self-adjoint are employed.
