Vacuum polarization on topological black holes with Robin boundary conditions
Thomas Morley, Peter Taylor, Elizabeth Winstanley
We compute the renormalized vacuum polarization for a massless, conformally coupled scalar field on asymptotically anti-de Sitter black hole backgrounds. Mixed (Robin) boundary con…

Quantum field theory on global anti-de Sitter space-time with Robin boundary conditions
Thomas Morley, Peter Taylor, Elizabeth Winstanley
We compute the vacuum polarization for a massless, conformally coupled scalar field on the covering space of global, four-dimensional, anti-de Sitter space-time. Since anti-de Sitt…

Vacuum polarization on topological black holes
Thomas Morley, Peter Taylor, Elizabeth Winstanley
We investigate quantum effects on topological black hole space-times within the framework of quantum field theory on curved space-times. Considering a quantum scalar field, we exte…
