Abstract: | A d-dimensional quantum model system confined to a general hypercubical geometry with linear spatial size L and “temporal size” 1/T ( T - temperature of the system) is considered in the spherical approximation under periodic boundary conditions. For a film
geometry in different space dimensions , where is a parameter controlling the decay of the long-range interaction, the free energy and the Casimir amplitudes are given.
We have proven that, if , the Casimir amplitude of the model, characterizing the leading temperature corrections to its ground state, is . The last implies that the universal constant of the model remains the same for both short, as well as long-range interactions, if one takes the normalization factor for
the Gaussian model to be such that . This is a generalization to the case of long-range interaction of the well-known result due to Sachdev. That constant differs
from the corresponding one characterizing the leading finite-size corrections at zero temperature which for is .
