• Abstract: The Casimir effect is one of the most direct manifestations of the existence of the vacuum quantum fluctuations, discovered by H. B Casimir in 1948. On the other hand, Lorentz invariance is one of the main and basic concepts in special relativity, which states that, the laws of physics are invariant under Lorentz transformation. In this work, we calculate the corrections imposed by LIV on Casimir effect (force). This may provide a direct probe to test LIV in nature.

• Derivation of Casimir Effect without Zeta-Regularization [0.0]
  The Casimir effect describes the attractive force arising due to quantum fluctuations of the vacuum electromagnetic field between closely spaced plates. Traditionally, zeta-regularization is employed in calculations to address infinities that emerge during the derivation. This paper presents a novel derivation of the Casimir effect that circumvents the need for zeta-regularization.

• Remnants of the nonrelativistic Casimir effect on the lattice [0.0]
  We investigate the Casimir effect for various dispersion relations on the lattice. We find that Casimir effects for dispersions proportional to an even power of momentum are absent in a long distance but a remnant of the Casimir effect survives in a short distance. Such a remnant Casimir effect will be experimentally observed in materials with quantum fields on the lattice, such as thin films, narrow nanoribbons, and short nanowires.
