Boundary Conditions as Mass Generation Mechanism for Complex Scalar Fields
J. A. Nogueira, D. Possa
We consider the effects of homogeneous Dirichlet's boundary conditions in the scalar electrodynamics with self-interaction. We have found for a critical scale of the compactificati…

Demonstration of how the zeta function method for effective potential removes the divergences
Jose Alexandre Nogueira, Adolfo Maia
The calculation of the minimum of the effective potential using the zeta function method is extremely advantagous, because the zeta function is regular at and we gain immedia…

Boundary Conditions as Mass Generation Mechanism for Real Scalar Fields
Jose Alexandre Nogueira, Pedro Leite Barbieri
We consider the effects of homogeneous Dirichlet's boundary conditions on two infinite parallel plane surfaces separated by a small distance {\it a}. We find that although spontane…
