用围道积分研究高维函数行列式

Functional determinants in higher dimensions using contour integrals

Klaus Kirsten

摘要:

在这篇文章中,我们首先总结了如何围道积分方法可以用来推导常微分算子的函数行列式的封闭公式。然后,我们将我们的考虑推广到偏微分算子。举例说明,在高维情况下,只要微分算子的本征值由超越方程确定,就可以得到封闭的解。考虑的例子包括有限温度卡西米尔效应的球和功能的拉普拉斯行列式的二维环面。

英文摘要:

In this contribution we first summarize how contour integration methods can be used to derive closed formulae for functional determinants of ordinary differential operators. We then generalize our considerations to partial differential operators. Examples are used to show that also in higher dimensions closed answers can be obtained as long as the eigenvalues of the differential operators are determined by transcendental equations. Examples considered comprise of the finite temperature Casimir effect on a ball and the functional determinant of the Laplacian on a two-dimensional torus.
