چکیده

where φ, ψ ∈ L, H = −~ 2m ∆+V (~x) is essentially self-adjoint, H̄ is the closure ofH , and φ, ψ, V each carries at most a finite number of singularities and discontinuities. In flavor of physics literature, we will formulate the Feynman path integral with improper Riemann integrals. In hope that with further research we can formulate a rigorous polygonal path integral, we will also provide a Nonstandard Analysis version of the Feynman path integral. Using Nonstandard Analysis is not essential to our formulation, and the idea of using Nonstandard Analysis on the Feynman path integral is not a new concept. For readers interested in Nonstandard Analysis, and its applications to Feynman path integrals, see [1], [10], [13], [19], [22], and references within. We will assume that the reader is familiar with Nonstandard Analysis. In physics, the Feynman path integral is formulated on the propagator and it is formally given by (see [11], [14], and [21])

A Rigorous Real Time Feynman Path Integral and Propagator

Abstract. We will derive a rigorous real time propagator for the Non-relativistic Quantum Mechanic L transition probability amplitude and for the Non-relativistic wave function. The propagator will be explicitly given in terms of the time evolution operator. The derivation will be for all self-adjoint nonvector potential Hamiltonians. For systems with potential that carries at most a finite num...

0 Rigorous Real - Time Feynman Path Integral for Vector Potentials

Abstract. In this paper, we will show the existence and uniqueness of a real-time, time-sliced Feynman path integral for quantum systems with vector potential. Our formulation of the path integral will be derived on the L transition probability amplitude via improper Riemann integrals. Our formulation will hold for vector potential Hamiltonian for which its potential and vector potential each c...

Extended Feynman Formula for the Harmonic Oscillator by the Discrete Time Method

We calculate the Feynman formula for the harmonic oscillator beyond and at caustics by the discrete formulation of path integral. The extension has been made by some authors, however, it is not obtained by the method which we consider the most reliable regularization of path integral. It is shown that this method leads to the result with, especially at caustics, more rigorous derivation than pr...

Nonstandard Feynman Path Integral for the Harmonic Oscillator

Using Nonstandard Analysis, we will provide a rigorous computation for the harmonic oscillator Feynman path integral. The computation will be done without having prior knowledge of the classical path. We will see that properties of classical physics falls out naturally from a purely quantum mechanical point of view. We will assume that the reader is familiar with Nonstandard Analysis.

A Rigorous Path-integral Formula for Quantum Spin Dynamics via Planar Brownian Motion

Adapting ideas of Daubechies and Klauder we derive a continuum path-integral formula for the time evolution generated by a spin Hamiltonian. For this purpose we identify the finite-dimensional spin Hilbert space with the ground-state eigenspace of a suitable Schödinger operator on L(R), the Hilbert space of square-integrable functions on the Euclidean plane R, and employ the Feynman-Kac-Itô for...
