چکیده
A bstract We study the manifestly covariant and local 1-loop path integrals on S d +1 for general massive, shift-symmetric (partially) massless totally symmetric tensor fields of arbitrary spin s ≥ 0 in any dimensions 2. After reviewing cases with = 1 , 2, we provide a detailed derivation integer spins 1. Following standard procedure Wick-rotating negative conformal modes, find higher analog Polchinski’s phase The derivations low-spin ( 2) partially are also carried out explicitly. Finally, prescriptions massive depths.

Path Integrals Without Integrals∗
Recently, we have developed an efficient recursive approach for analytically calculating the short-time expansion of the propagator to extremely high orders for a general many-body quantum system. Here we give brief overview of this approach and then demonstrate application of this technique by numerically studying the thermodynamical properties of a rotating ideal Bose gas of Rb atoms in an an...
متن کاملPath Integrals for Stochastic Neurodynamics Path Integrals for Stochastic Neurodynamics
We present here a method for the study of stochastic neurodynamics in the framework of the "Neural Network Master Equation" proposed by Cowan. We consider a model neural network composed of two{state neurons subject to simple stochastic kinetics. We introduce a method based on a spin choerent state path integral to compute the moment generating function of such a network. A formal construction ...
متن کاملIterated Path Integrals
The classical calculus of variation is a critical point theory of certain differentiable functions (or functional) on a smooth or piecewise smooth path space, whose differentiable structure is defined implicitly. Because of the importance of path spaces to analysis, geometry and other fields, it is desirable to develop a geometric integration theory or a de Rham theory for path spaces. Having i...
متن کاملRigorous Covariant Path Integrals
Our rigorous path integral is extended to quantum evolution on metricaffine manifolds. 1 Path Integrals on Euclidean Spaces. Consider the evolution operator U [ψ(t, q)] = ψ(t, q), t ≥ t, of the quantum evolution equation on L(R): h̄ i ∂ψ(t, q)/∂t+ f(t, q, h̄ i ∂/∂q)ψ(t, q) = 0. Here the operator f(t, q, h̄ i ∂/∂q) is the standard quantization of a classical timedependent quasi-Hamiltonian f(t, q, ...
متن کاملPropagators and Path Integrals
Path-integral expressions for one-particle propagators in scalar and fermionic field theories are derived, for arbitrary mass. This establishes a direct connection between field theory and specific classical point-particle models. The role of world-line reparametrization invariance of the classical action and the implementation of the corresponding BRST-symmetry in the quantum theory are discus...
