The transformation formulas between two inertial frames for the minimum phase velocity and the phase velocity in an arbitrary direction are given. The derived transformation formula for the reciprocal of the phase velocity along the…
Many interesting physical theories have analytic classical actions. We show how Feynman's path integral may be defined non-perturbatively, for such theories, without a Wick rotation to imaginary time. We start by introducing a class of…
We show that the analysis presented in a recent comment by Coll and Ferrando \cite{comment} (qr-qc/0312058) is based on the erroneous assumption that the chemical potential and fractional concentration of a {\it mixture} of perfect fluids…
We discuss a path integral formalism to introduce noncommutative generalizations of spacetime manifold in even dimensions, which have been suggested to be reasonable effective pictures at very small length scales, of the order of Planck…
In this paper, we study the possibility of designing non-trivial random CSP models by exploiting the intrinsic connection between structures and typical-case hardness. We show that constraint consistency, a notion that has been developed to…
The paper of Unal [J. Math. Phys. 59, 062104 (2018)], though worthy of attention, contains a conclusion that is in error and may mislead the efforts to extend his results. The aim of the present note is twofold: we provide a correction to…
A comment to the paper by S. Chen, H. B\"uttner, and J. Voit, [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 87}, 087205 (2001)].
We define and investigate the properties of the jaggedness of path integral trajectories. The new quantity is shown to be scale invariant and to satisfy a self-averaging property. Jaggedness allows for a classification of path integral…
In this paper, I consider the issue of how two mathematical models of modern physics, the variational principles and the quantum path integral formalism, relate to reality. I assume that the observed phenomena are consistent with the…
We present a derivation of the Schr\"odinger equation for a path integral of a point particle in a space with curvature and torsion which is considerably shorter and more elegant than what is commonly found in the literature.
We construct a path distribution representing the kinetic part of the Feynman path integral at discrete times similar to that defined by Thomas [1], but on a Hilbert space of paths rather than a nuclear sequence space. We also consider…
This paper describes a path integral formulation of the free energy principle. The ensuing account expresses the paths or trajectories that a particle takes as it evolves over time. The main results are a method or principle of least action…
The paper develops the idea that the dynamics of both classical and quantum processes is time reversible. It is shown how this classical analogy allows one to define the measure for the path integral in quantum mechanics.
The Feynman path integral plays a crucial role in quantum mechanics, offering significant insights into the interaction between classical action and propagators, and linking quantum electrodynamics (QED) with Feynman diagrams. However, the…
The perturbative path-integral gives a morphism of the (quantum) $A_{\infty }$ structure intrinsic to each quantum field theory, which we show explicitly on the basis of the homological perturbation. As is known, in the BV formalism, any…
In this paper, we consider a time-headway model, introduced in Physica A 296:320 (2001), for buses on a bus route. By including a simple no-passing rule, we are able to enumerate and study the unstable modes of a homogeneous system. We then…
This book provides an introduction to path integral methods and their application to modeling atomistic processes. The book covers both the foundational theory and recently developed simulation techniques. The text provides a self-contained…
We discuss how one calculates the coherent path integrals for locally interacting systems, where some inconsistencies with exact results have been reported previously. It is shown that the operator ordering subtlety that is hidden in the…
Using experimental transverse velocities data for very high Reynolds number turbulence, we suggest a model describing both formation of intermittency and asymmetry of turbulence. The model, called "bump-model" is a modification of…
