We to define a Path Integral in Lorentzian time by restricting the relevant domain of integration on $C([0,1],M)$ over a Riemannian configuration manifold $(M,g)$ and considering the dynamics of a particle evolving between to fixed…

We study the functional integrals that appear in a path integral bosonization procedure for more than two spacetime dimensions. Since they are not in general exactly solvable, their evaluation by a suitable loop expansion would be a natural…

Various approaches to stochastic processes exist, noting that key properties such as measurability and continuity are not trivially satisfied. We introduce a new theory for Gaussian processes using improper linear functionals. Using a…

In the path integral formulation of the evolution of an open quantum system coupled to a Gaussian, non-interacting environment, the dynamical contribution of the latter is encoded in an object called the influence functional. Here, we…

We derive time dependent correlation functions in an one dimensional XY spin model with the use of generating functionals, the latter being defined as path integrals over fermionic coherent states. We focus on the proper construction of the…

We introduce a variational theory for processes adapted to the multi-dimensional Brownian motion filtration. The theory provides a differential structure which describes the infinitesimal evolution of Wiener functionals at very small…

Stochastic mechanics---the study of classical stochastic systems governed by things like master equations and Fokker-Planck equations---exhibits striking mathematical parallels to quantum mechanics. In this article, we make those parallels…

We construct a new topology on the space of stopped paths and introduce a calculus for causal functionals on generic domains of this space. We propose a generic approach to pathwise integration without any assumption on the variation index…

The combination of functional limit theorems with the pathwise analysis of deterministic and stochastic differential equations has proven to be a powerful approach to the analysis of fast-slow systems. In a multivariate setting, this…

We present a comprehensive study of the symmetries of the generating functionals of generic Langevin processes with multiplicative colored noise. We treat both Martin-Siggia-Rose-Janssen-deDominicis and supersymmetric formalisms. We…

We investigate the stochastic motion of a Brownian particle in the harmonic potential with a time-dependent force constant. It may describe the motion of a colloidal particle in an optical trap where the potential well is formed by a…

We demonstrate that the conventional path integral formulations generate inconsistent results exemplified by the geometric Brownian motion under the general stochastic interpretation. We thus develop a novel path integral formulation for…

It is strange but fruitful to think about the functions as random processes. Any function can be viewed as a martingale (in many different ways) with discrete time. But it can be useful to have continuous time too. Processes can emulate…

We investigate a random integral which provides a natural example of an imaginary exponential functional of Brownian motion. This functional shows up in the study of the binary annihilation process, within the Doi-Peliti formalism for…

It was shown in Mishura et al. (Stochastic Process. Appl. 123 (2013) 2353-2369), that any random variable can be represented as improper pathwise integral with respect to fractional Brownian motion. In this paper, we extend this result to…
