In this paper we develop the alternative path-integral approach to quantum mechanics. We present a resolvent of a Hamiltonian (which is Laplace transform of a evolution operator) in a form which has a sense of ``the sum over paths'' but it…
We analyze the property of locality with respect to the framework for quantum mechanics based on the path integral formalism. As is well known, this framework makes the same experimental predictions as does the one based on a separable…
We present a new method for the consistent construction of time-continuous coherent-state path integrals using the theory of half-form quantization. Through the inversion of the quantization procedure we construct a de-quantization map…

The present paper is a short review of different path integral representations of the partition function of quantum spin systems. To begin with, I consider coherent states for SU(2) algebra. Different parameterizations of the coherent…
Path integrals represent a powerful route to quantization: they calculate probabilities by summing over classical configurations of variables such as fields, assigning each configuration a phase equal to the action of that configuration.…

We make use of point transformations to introduce new canonical variables for systems defined on a finite interval and on the half-line so that new position variables should take all real values from $-\infty$ to $\infty$. The completeness…
We propose a new way to perform path integrals in quantum mechanics by using a quantum version of Hamilton-Jacobi theory. In classical mechanics, Hamilton-Jacobi theory is a powerful formalism, however, its utility is not explored in…
Quantum transition amplitudes are formulated for a model system with local internal time, using path integrals. The amplitudes are shown to be more regular near a turning point of internal time than could be expected based on existing…
