abstract

We explore the Casimir effect of a rough membrane within the framework of theories that break Lorentz symmetry. We consider two constant Aether vectors: one timelike and other spacelike, simultaneously. We employ an appropriate change of coordinates such that the membrane assumes a completely flat border and the remaining terms associated with the roughness are considered as part of the potential. Quantum fluctuations are induced by a scalar quantum field subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions. The spectrum is obtained through perturbation theory and regularized using the $\zeta$--function method. We provide an explicit example of a membrane with periodic boundaries. The presence of Aether vectors has a significant impact on the dominant term of the Casimir effect, while roughness only affects the secondary terms. Additionally, we examine the finite-temperature case.

  1. One-Loop Quantum Corrections to the Casimir Effect for Smoothly Rough Plates in the Low-Temperature Regime

    hep-th 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    For a self-interacting scalar field between rough parallel plates, the one-loop Casimir energy and induced mass get corrections set by integrals of the roughness profile plus exponentially small thermal terms.

  2. One-Loop Correction to the Casimir Energy in Lorentz-Violating $\phi^4$ Theory with Rough Membrane Boundaries

    hep-th 2025-01 reject novelty 5.0 of 10

    The one-loop Casimir energy for a Lorentz-violating scalar field between rough membranes is claimed to equal the smooth-plate result at a rescaled separation, but the periodic-boundary sector is off by a factor of eight.
