Testing the surrogate zeta-function method

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6181343
Use of the surrogate zeta-function method was crucial in calculating the Casimir energy in non-Abelian Kaluza-Klein theories. We establish the validity of this method for the case that the background metric is (Euclidean space)x(N-sphere). Our techniques do not apply to the case where the background is (Minkowski-space)x(N-sphere).
