Abstract: In this work we consider the one-loop effective action of a self-interacting $lambdaph{i}^4$ field propagating in a $D$ dimensional Euclidean space endowed with $dleqD$ compact dimensions. The main purpose of this paper is to compute the corrections to the mass of the field due to the presence of the compactified dimensions. Although results for the one-loop correction to the mass of a $lambdaph{i}^4$ field are very well known for compactified toroidal spaces, where the field obeys periodic boundary conditions, similar results do not appear to be readily available for cases in which the scalar field is subject to Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. We apply the results for the one-loop mass correction to the study of the critical temperature in Ginzburg-Landau models.
