In this paper we analyze the vacuum expectation values of the field squared and the energy-momentum tensor associated to a massive scalar field in a higher dimensional cosmic string spacetime, obeying Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions on the surface orthogonal to the string.

In this work we compute the vacuum expectation values of the energy-momentum tensor and the average value of a massive, charged scalar field in the presence of a magnetic flux cosmic string for both zero- and finite-temperature cases.

We investigate the vacuum expectation value of the energy-momentum tensor associated with a massive fermionic field obeying the MIT bag boundary condition on a spherical shell in the global monopole spacetime. The asymptotic behavior of the vacuum densities is investigated near the sphere center and surface, and at large distances from the sphere. In the limit of strong gravitational field corresponding to small values of the parameter describing the solid angle deficit in global monopole geometry, the sphere-induced expectation values are exponentially suppressed.

In this paper, we study the effect of the quantum backreaction on Brans–Dicke cosmology in inflation era. We consider an inflaton field in the [Formula: see text]-dimensional spacetime in the framework of Brans–Dicke model. We use a new notation for the Brans–Dicke field in terms of the dilaton field. Then we obtain the vacuum expectation value of the full energy–momentum tensor using WKB approximation of the mode functions which satisfy the equations of motion. The obtained vacuum expectation values of energy–momentum tensor are divergent. In order to renormalize it, we introduce a constant cut-off [Formula: see text]. The vacuum expectation value of energy–momentum tensor is separated to the UV and IR parts by using [Formula: see text] cut-off. Then, we use the dimensional regularization method to eliminate divergences by introducing a counterterm action. Also, we calculate the IR contribution of the vacuum expectation value of energy–momentum tensor. Thus, we obtain a physically finite result for the quantum energy–momentum tensor. Finally, we find the effect of backreaction on scale factor.

We study the vacuum polarization effect in the space–time generated by a magnetic flux cosmic string in the framework of a scalar–tensor theory of gravity. The vacuum expectation values of the energy–momentum tensor of a conformally coupled scalar field are calculated and the dilaton's contribution to the vacuum polarization effect is shown.

In this paper we investigate the vacuum expectation values of energy–momentum tensor for conformally coupled scalar field in the standard parallel plate geometry with Dirichlet boundary conditions and in the background of planar domain wall case. First we calculate the vacuum expectation values of energy–momentum tensor by using the mode sums, then we show that corresponding properties can be obtained by using the conformal properties of the problem. The vacuum expectation values of energy–momentum tensor contain two terms which come from the boundary conditions and the the gravitational background. In the Minkowskian limit our results agree with those obtained in Ref. 3.
