Abstract

We discuss Euclidean Green functions on product manifolds . We show that if is compact and is not compact then the Euclidean field on can be approximated by its zero mode which is a Euclidean field on . We estimate the remainder of this approximation. We show that for large distances on the remainder is small. If , where S β is a circle of radius β, then the result reduces to the well-known approximation of the D -dimensional finite temperature quantum field theory by ( D − 1)-dimensional one in the high-temperature limit. Analytic continuation of Euclidean fields is discussed briefly.
