On the numerical method of Casimir energy renormalization in the presence of logarithmical divergencies

A non-subtractive recipe of Casimir energy renormalization efficient in the presence of logarithmically divergent terms is proposed. It is demonstrated that it can be applied even then, when energy levels can be obtained only numerically and neither their asymptotical behavior, nor the analytic form of spectral equation is known. The results of calculations performed with this method are compared to those obtained by means of explicit subtraction of divergent terms from energy.

On the numerical technique of Casimir energy calculation

A non-subtractive recipe of Casimir energy renormalization efficient in the presence of logarithmically divergent terms is proposed. It is demonstrated that it can be applied even in such cases, when energy levels can be obtained only numerically whereas neither their asymptotical behavior, nor the analytical form of the corresponding spectral equation can be studied. The results of numerical calculations performed with this method are compared to those obtained by means of explicit subtraction of divergent terms from energy.

UV-regularization of field discontinuities

A nonperturbative regularization of UV-divergencies, caused by finite discontinuities in the field configuration, is discussed in the context of 1+1-dimensional kink models. The relationship between this procedure and the appearance of "quantum copies" of classical kink solutions is studied in detail and confirmed by conventional methods of soliton quantization.
