The propagator for the step potential using the path decomposition expansion

Quantum Physics 2015-05-13 v1

Abstract

We present a direct path integral derivation of the propagator in the presence of a step potential. The derivation makes use of the Path Decomposition Expansion (PDX), and also of the definition of the propagator as a limit of lattice paths.
