Abstract

In this paper, we construct a pp-adic path integral via pp-adic multiple integrals. This integral describes the evolution of a wave function Ψ(x)\Psi(x), which is defined as a map from a domain in Cp\mathbb{C}_{p} to Cp\mathbb{C}_{p}. We also compute the Feynman propagator for free particles, demonstrating that the result obtained is similar to the classical counterparts.
