In this review, we detail the commonality of mathematical intuitions that underlie three numerical methods used for the quantitative description of electron swarms propagating in a gas under the effect of externally applied electric and/or…
This paper is a revised version of our recent publication Faber et al., Phys. Rev. D62 (2000) 025019, hep-th/9907048. The main revision concerns the expansion into group characters that we have used for the evaluation of path integrals over…
The path integral quantization method is applied to a relativistically covariant version of the Hopfield model, which represents a very interesting mesoscopic framework for the description of the interaction between quantum light and…
We investigate path integral formalism for continuum theory. It is shown that the path integral for the soft modes can be represented in the form of a lattice theory. Kinetic term of this lattice theory has a standard form and potential…
We present a method, based on Feynman path integrals, to describe the propagation and properties of the quantised electromagnetic field in an arbitrary, nonlinear medium. We provide a general theory, valid for any order of optical…
We develop the path integral formalism for studying cosmological perturbations in multi-field inflation, which is particularly well suited to study quantum theories with gauge symmetries such as diffeomorphism invariance. We formulate the…
Discontinuous initial wave functions or wave functions with discontintuous derivative and with bounded support arise in a natural way in various situations in physics, in particular in measurement theory. The propagation of such initial…
This paper proposes a numerical method using neural networks to solve the path integral problem in quantum mechanics for arbitrary potentials. The method is based on a radial basis function expansion of the interaction term that appears in…
Within the path integral formalism, we derive exact expressions for correlation functions measuring the lattice charge induced by an electron and associated polarization in Frohlich polaron problem. We prove that a sum rule for the total…
Input-output theory is a well-known tool in quantum optics and ubiquitous in the description of quantum systems probed by light. Owing to the generality of the setup it describes, the theory finds application in a wide variety of…
The theme of doing quantum mechanics on all abelian groups goes back to Schwinger and Weyl. If the group is a vector space of finite dimension over a non-archimedean locally compact division ring, it is of interest to examine the structure…
The Circularity Principle was successfully applied for developing a coinductive proving technique, known as circular coinduction. In this paper, we show that the same principle can be used to develop an inductive proving technique. A main…
Collisional effects are included in the path-integral formulation that was proposed in one of our previous paper for the collisionless Boltzmann gas. In calculating the number of molecules entering a six-dimensional phase volume element due…
The Feynman Propagator of a charged particle confined to an anisotropic Harmonic Oscillator potential and moving in a crossed electromagnetic field is calculated in a conceptually new way. The calculation is based on the expansion of the…
A perturbative approach to quantum field theory involves the computation of loop integrals, as soon as one goes beyond the leading term in the perturbative expansion. First I review standard techniques for the computation of loop integrals.…
Following the renewed interest in the topic [1], we revisit the problem of assigning probabilities to classes of Feynman paths passing through specified space-time regions. We show that by assigning of probabilities to interfering…
The propagator associated to the potential barrier $V=V_{0}\cosh ^{-2}(\omega x)$ is obtained by solving path integrals. The method of delta functionals based on canonical and other transformations is used to reduce the path integral for…
The principle of least action is arguably the most fundamental principle in physics as it can be used to derive the equations of motion in various branches of physics. However, this principle has not been experimentally demonstrated at the…
A path integral representation of the evolution operator for the four-dimensional Dirac equation is proposed. A quadratic form of the canonical momenta regularizes the original representation of the path integral in the electron phase…
Reproducing measurements of the scattering mean free paths for energetic particles propagating through the solar system has been a major problem in space physics. The pioneering work of Bieber et al. [Astrophys. J. 420, 294 (1994)] provided…
