Abstract

This note is devoted to representation of some evolution semigroups. The semigroups are generated by pseudo-differential operators, which are obtained by different (parametrized by a number τ\tau) procedures of quantization from a certain class of functions (or symbols) defined on the phase space. This class contains functions which are second order polynomials with respect to the momentum variable and also some other functions. The considered semigroups are represented as limits of nn-fold iterated integrals when nn tends to infinity (such representations are called Feynman formulae). Some of these representations are constructed with the help of another pseudo-differential operators, obtained by the same procedure of quantization (such representations are called Hamiltonian Feynman formulae). Some representations are based on integral operators with elementary kernels (these ones are called Lagrangian Feynman formulae and are suitable for computations). A family of phase space Feynman pseudomeasures corresponding to different procedures of quantization is introduced. The considered evolution semigroups are represented also as phase space Feynman path integrals with respect to these Feynman pseudomeasures. The obtained Lagrangian Feynman formulae allow to calculate these phase space Feynman path integrals and to connect them with some functional integrals with respect to probability measures.
