Abstract The partition function of a massless scalar field on a Euclidean spacetime manifold ℝ d−1 × 𝕋2 and with momentum operator in the compact spatial dimension coupled through a purely imaginary chemical potential is computed. It is modul

Recent work on non-proper gauge degrees of freedom in the context of the Casimir effect is reviewed. In his original paper, Casimir starts by pointing out that, when the electromagnetic field is confined between two perfectly conducting parallel plat
