Local and Global Casimir Energies in a Green's Function Approach

K. A. Milton, I. Cavero-Pelaez, K. Kirsten

The effects of quantum fluctuations in fields confined by background configurations may be simply and transparently computed using the Green's function approach pioneered by Schwin…

Equivalence of a Complex $\cP\cT$-Symmetric Quartic Hamiltonian and a Hermitian Quartic Hamiltonian with an Anomaly

Carl M. Bender, Dorje C. Brody, Jun-Hua Chen +3

In a recent paper Jones and Mateo used operator techniques to show that the non-Hermitian $\cP\cT$-symmetric wrong-sign quartic Hamiltonian $H=\half p^2-gx^4$ has the same spectrum…

Thermal corrections to the Casimir effect

Iver Brevik, Simen A. Ellingsen, Kimball A. Milton

The Casimir effect, reflecting quantum vacuum fluctuations in the electromagnetic field in a region with material boundaries, has been studied both theoretically and experimentally…

Classical Trajectories for Complex Hamiltonians

Carl M. Bender, Jun-Hua Chen, Daniel W. Darg +1

It has been found that complex non-Hermitian quantum-mechanical Hamiltonians may have entirely real spectra and generate unitary time evolution if they possess an unbroken $\cP\cT$…
