Note on entanglement and edge modes

J. S. Dowker

A recent numerical evaluation of the spherical universal log coefficient in the Maxwell free--energy and its decomposition into bulk and edge contributions via a bounded hyperbolic…

On the vacuum energy in the Einstein Universe and the conformal anomaly

J. S. Dowker

An oldish question is resurrected concerning the significance of the ambiguous `b-type' terms encountered in calculations of the vacuum, Casimir energy on the Einstein Universe for…

Casimir energy of hyperbolic elements

J. S. Dowker

The contribution, E, of hyperbolic elements to the scalar Casimir energy on a compact quotient of the upper half hyperbolic plane is computed for a propagation operator conformal i…

A note on the functional determinant of higher-derivative scalar fields on sphere products

J. S. Dowker

It is shown that the functional determinant ( effective action) for a scalar field propagating on the mixed signature product of unit spheres, SS, according to…

A discrete Funk-Hecke theorem

J. S. Dowker

A discrete Funk--Hecke formula is set up using the analogy between ordinary and operator spherical harmonics. It is the fuzzy sphere analogue of the conventional theory. An example…

Note on an improved classical limit of Clebsch-Gordan coefficients

J. S. Dowker

A symmetrising shift employed by Frenkel and Hartnoll in the approximate computation of the elements of matrix spherical harmonics is further explored and shown to be related to th…
