Background: Path integrals are a powerful tool for solving problems in quantum theory that are not amenable to a treatment by perturbation theory. Most path integral computations require an analytic continuation to imaginary time. While…
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…

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 path integral formulation of quantum mechanics, i.e., the idea that the evolution of a quantum system is determined as a sum over all the possible trajectories that would take the system from the initial to its final state of its…
We present an explicit path integral evaluation of the free Hamiltonian propagator on the (D-1)-dimensional pseudosphere, in the horicyclic coordinates, using the integral equation method. This method consists in deriving an integral…
The path integral for the propagator is expanded into a perturbation series, which can be exactly summed in the case of $\delta$-function perturbations giving a closed expression for the (energy-dependent) Green function. Making the…

A specific class of explicitly time-dependent potentials is studied by means of path integrals. For this purpose a general formalism to treat explicitly time-dependent space-time transformations in path integrals is sketched. An explicit…
