Título:
Effective actions at finite temperature and thermodynamic properties of some bosonic field theories
Autor/es:

Reunión:

Resumen:
I will discuss the evaluation, through zeta regularization, of bosonic effective actions in the whole temperature range, as well as the resulting thermodynamic properties and their behavior under temperature inversion. As  particular examples, I will treat conformal scalar fields in homogeneous lens spaces (a problem of cosmological interest) and the temperature-dependent Casimir effect.
