We integrate out the Higgs boson in the electroweak standard model at one loop and construct a low-energy effective Lagrangian assuming that the Higgs mass is much larger than the gauge-boson masses. Instead of applying diagrammatical…

A path integral (Lagrangian formalism) is used to derive the effective equations of motion of the anomalous Hall effect with Berry's phase on the basis of the adiabatic condition $|E_{n\pm1}-E_{n}|\gg 2\pi\hbar/T$, where $T$ is the typical…

The gravitational path integral on $S^2 \times S^2$ can be interpreted either as evaluating a contribution to the norm of the Hartle-Hawking wavefunction conditional on spatial $S^1 \times S^2$ topology, or the pair creation rate of black…
We consider the form of the path integral that follows from canonical quantization and apply it to the first order form of the Einstein-Hilbert action in $d > 2$ dimensions. We show that this is inequivalent to what is obtained from…

I propose a path integral description of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger Hamiltonian, both in one and two dimensions, after mapping the real space model onto the time scale. While the lattice degrees of freedom are classical functions of time and…
We briefly review a hamiltonian path integral formalism developed earlier by one of us. An important feature of this formalism is that the path integral quantization in arbitrary co-ordinates is set up making use of only classical…
Much like the action, diffeomorphism invariance can be used to fix the form of the path integral measure in quantum gravity. Moreover, since there is a redundancy between what constitutes "the action" and what constitutes "the measure" one…
Path integral formulation of quantum mechanics (and also other equivalent formulations) depends on a Lagrangian and/or Hamiltonian function that is chosen to describe the underlying classical system. The arbitrariness presented in this…
