Resumo

We reexamine the two-point function approaches used to study vacuum fluctuation in wedge-shaped regions and conical backgrounds. The appearance of divergent integrals is discussed and circumvented. The issue is considered in the context of a massless scalar field in cosmic string spacetime.
