In this paper, we consider a Lorentz-breaking scalar field theory within the Horava–Lifshtz approach. We investigate the changes that a space–time anisotropy produces in the Casimir effect. A massless real quantum scalar field is considered in two distinct situations: between two parallel plates and inside a rectangular two-dimensional box. In both cases, we have adopted specific boundary conditions on the field at the boundary. As we shall see, the energy and the Casimir force strongly depends on the parameter associated with the breaking of Lorentz symmetry and also on the boundary conditions.

The scalar field of space-time film is considered as unified fundamental field. The field model under consideration is the space-time generalization of the model for a two-dimensional thin film. The force and metrical interactions between solitons are considered. These interactions correspond to the electromagnetic and gravitational interactions respectively. The metrical interaction and its correspondence to the gravitational one are considered in detail. The practical applications of this approach are briefly discussed.

The vacuum energy in interacting scalar field theory is computed in the case of the Casimir effect as a sum over zero-point energies and as a path-integral determinant, using both ζ-function regularization and dimensional regularization. Using a simple nonrecursive method of calculation, the two forms of the vacuum energy are shown to differ before renormalization by a scale-independent term when ζ-function regularization is used, but yield exactly the same result when dimensional regularization is used.

We develop the basic formalism of complex q-analysis to study the solutions of second order q-difference equations which reduce, in the q → 1 limit, to the ordinary Laplace equation in Euclidean and Minkowski space. After defining an inner product on the function space we construct and study the properties of the solutions, and then apply this formalism to the Schrödinger equation and two-dimensional scalar field theory.

In this paper, the two-dimensional Reissner–Nordström black hole is considered as a system of the Casimir type. In this background, the Casimir effect for the massless Dirac field is discussed. The massless Dirac field is confined between two "parallel plates" separated by a distance L and there is no particle current drilling through the boundaries. The vacuum expectation values of the stress tensor of the massless Dirac field at infinity are calculated separately in the Boulware state, the Hartle–Hawking state and the Unruh state.
