We consider the interaction of a cylindrical graphene sheet with a dielectric half space and with a flat graphene sheet by a generalization of the method of functional determinants. We confirm the proximity force approximation (PFA) for these configurations and calculate the first correction beyond PFA. This can be considered as a generalization of the Lifshitz formula to such configurations.
