read the original abstract
A set of models is considered which, in a certain sense, interpolates between 1+1 free quantum field theories on topologically distinct backgrounds. The intermediate models may be termed free quantum field theories, though they are certainly not local. Their ground state energies are computed and shown to be finite. The possible relevance to changing spacetime topologies is discussed.
