Continuity of KMS States for Quantum Fields on Manifolds

We show that pure, quasifree states, as well as regular (i.e., those with a unique vacuum) quasifree ground and KMS states, for linear quantum fields in a curved spacetime, are always continuous in the sense of distributions, and provide certain applications of this fact.

The scaling limits of KMS states on the Rindler horizon

The standard concept of scaling limits of distributions on manifolds is reformulated, and then a new framework for scaling at boundary points is provided. Next, we introduce a class of so-called L1 - KMS states, which is subsequently fully characterized for the Rindler wedge. Using these tools, we compute rigorously the scaling limit of the regular KMS state of the free scalar quantum field on the Rindler horizon. Thereby, we correct certain inaccurate results of founding paper [1], nevertheless fully corroborating the physical essence of them.
