Path Integral Representation for Weyl Particle Propagator
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a path integral representation for massless spin one-half particles. It is shown that this gives us a super–symmetric, P − and T −non–invariant pseudoclassical model for relativistic massless spinning particles. Dirac quantization of this model is considered.

On Anyonic Propagators
We consider a simple action for a fractional spin particle and a path integral representation for the propagator is obtained in a gauge such that the constraint embodied in the Lagrangian is not an obstacle. We obtain a propagator for the particle in a constant electromagnetic field via the path integral representation over velocities, which is characterized by arbitrary boundary conditions and...
متن کاملpropagator of a free massive particle with an arbitrary spin from the BFV – BRST path integral
The transition amplitude is obtained for a free massive particle of arbitrary spin by calculating the path integral in the index–spinor formulation within the BFV–BRST approach. None renor-malizations of the path integral measure were applied. The calculation has given the Weinberg propagator written in the index–free form with the use of index spinor. The choice of boundary conditions on the i...
متن کاملOn the Hamiltonian Approach and Path Integration for a Point Particle Minimally Coupled to Electromagnetism
We derive the exact configuration space path integral, together with the way how to evaluate it, from the Hamiltonian approach for any quantum mechanical system in flat spacetime whose Hamiltonian has at most two momentum operators. Starting from a given, covariant or non-covariant, Hamiltonian, we go from the time-discretized path integral to the continuum path integral by introducing Fourier ...
متن کاملDuality and Zero-Point Length of Spacetime
The action for a relativistic free particle of mass m receives a contribution 2mds from a path of infinitesimal length ds. Using this action in a path integral, one can obtain the Feynman propagator for a spinless particle of mass m. Assuming that the path integral amplitude is invariant under the “duality” transformation ds ! LPyds, one can calculate the modified Feynman propagator. I show tha...
متن کاملPath integral and pseudoclassical action for spinning particle in external electromagnetic and torsion fields
We study a possibility for pseudoclassical description of a spinning particle in external electromagnetic and torsion fields. To this end we depart from the Dirac equation in such a background and derive a path integral representation for the corresponding propagator. An effective action which appears in the representation is interpreted as a pseudoclassical action for the spinning particle. It...
