We examine the problem of the evaluation of both the propagator and of the partition function of a spinning particle in an external field at the classical as well as the quantum level, in connection with the asserted exactness of the saddle…

In this paper, we extend the collinear superspace formalism to include the full range of $\mathcal{N} = 1$ supersymmetric interactions. Building on the effective field theory rules developed in a companion paper - "Navigating Collinear…
We show that the gauge-invariant coupling suggested by Pascalutsa removes non-pole terms from a spin-$\fth$ propagator only for a specific choice of free parameter. For the general case the problem can be solved by including higher order…

The goal of this paper is to define the Grassmann integral in terms of a limit of a sum around a well-defined contour so that Grassmann numbers gain geometric meaning rather than symbols. The unusual rescaling properties of the integration…
