Abstract

We present a recursive procedure, which is based on the small time expansion of the propagator, in order to generate a semi-classical expansion of the \textit{quantum action} for a quantum mechanical potential in arbitrary dimensions. In the method we use the spectral information emerges from the singularities of the propagator on the complex tt plane, which are handled by the i\vei\ve prescription and basic complex analysis. This feature allows for generalization to higher dimensions. We illustrate the procedure by providing simple examples in non-relativistic quantum mechanics.
