On exceptional times for pointwise convergence of integral kernels in Feynman-Trotter path integrals

Mathematical Physics 2020-04-14 v1 math.MP

Abstract

In the first part of the paper we provide a survey of recent results concerning the problem of pointwise convergence of integral kernels in Feynman path integral, obtained by means of time-frequency analysis techniques. We then focus on exceptional times, where the previous results do not hold, and we show that weaker forms of convergence still occur. In conclusion we offer some clues about possible physical interpretation of exceptional times.
