Imaginary-time path integral for a relativistic spinless particle in an electromagnetic field (Q1084761): Difference between revisions

A rigorous path integral representation of the solution of the Cauchy problem for the pure-imaginary-time Schrödinger equation \(\partial_ 1\psi (t,x)=-[H-mc^ 2]\psi (t,x)\) is established. H is the quantum Hamiltonian associated, via the Weyl correspondence, with the classical Hamiltonian \([(cp-eA(x))^ 2+m^ 2c^ 4]^{1/2}+e\Phi (x)\) of a relativistic spinless particle in an electromagnetic field. The problem is connected with a time homogeneous Lévy process.
