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…

It is wellknown that the Feynman kernel for the free particle on the half-line can be expressed as a sum over classical paths if we take the contribution from the reflected path into account. The minus sign for the reflected path needs to…

We formulate Feynman path integral on a non commutative plane using coherent states. The propagator for a free particle exhibits UV cut-off induced by the parameter of non commutativity.
