Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum field theory on global anti-de Sitter space-time with Robin boundary conditions
TL;DR: In this article, the vacuum polarization for a massless, conformally coupled scalar field on the covering space of global, four-dimensional, anti-de Sitter space-time is computed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-forces on static bodies in arbitrary dimensions
TL;DR: In this article, exact expressions for scalar and electromagnetic self-forces and self-torques acting on arbitrary static extended bodies in arbitrary static spacetimes with any number of dimensions are derived.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vacuum polarization on the Schwarzschild metric threaded by a cosmic string
Adrian C. Ottewill,Peter Taylor +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the renormalization of the vacuum polarization in a symmetry space-time with axial but not spherical symmetry, Schwarzschild space time threaded by an infinite straight cosmic string was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Renormalized vacuum polarization and stress tensor on the horizon of a Schwarzschild black hole threaded by a cosmic string
Adrian C. Ottewill,Peter Taylor +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the renormalized vacuum polarization and stress tensor for a massless, arbitrarily coupled scalar field in the Hartle-Hawking vacuum state on the horizon of a Schwarzschild black hole threaded by an infinite straight cosmic string was calculated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Static Kerr Green's function in closed form and an analytic derivation of the self-force for a static scalar charge in Kerr space-time
Adrian C. Ottewill,Peter Taylor +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived a closed-form solution for the Green's function for the wave equation of a static (with respect to an undragged, static observer at infinity) scalar charge in the Kerr space-time.
