Casimir Effect in $E^3$ closed spaces
As it is well known the topology of space is not totally determined by Einstein's equations. It is considered a massless scalar quantum field in a static Euclidean space of dimension 3. The expectation value for the energy density in all compact orientable Euclidean 3-spaces are obtained in this work as a finite summation of Epstein type zeta functions. The Casimir energy density for these particular manifolds is independent of the type of coupling with curvature. A numerical plot of the result inside each Dirichlet region is obtained.
