A Fast-Converging Kernel Density Estimator for Dispersion in Horizontally Homogeneous Meteorological Conditions

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
Kernel smoothers are often used in Lagrangian particle dispersion simulations to estimate the concentration distribution of tracer gasses, pollutants etc.

Path integral representation of the evolution operator for the Dirac equation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
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 space.

Relativistic Path Integrals [PDF]

open access: yesProgress of Theoretical Physics, 1979
Summary: An elementary theory of relativistic path integrals is developed in the Lorentz space. A path integral for a Dirac electron is formulated, in which the perturbation expansion is shown to give the same rules as those given in the more usual formulation of field theory. A geometric feature of path integrals is investigated by using Weyl's theory

A probabilistic approach of Liouville field theory

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Physique, 2021
In this article, we present the Liouville field theory, which was introduced in the eighties in physics by Polyakov as a model for fluctuating metrics in 2D quantum gravity, and outline recent mathematical progress in its study. In particular, we explain

Purely geometric path integral for spin foams [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Spin-foams are a proposal for defining the dynamics of loop quantum gravity via path integral. In order for a path integral to be at least formally equivalent to the corresponding canonical quantization, at each point in the space of histories it is ...

QED on Curved Background and on Manifolds with Boundaries: Unitarity versus Covariance [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Some recent results show that the covariant path integral and the integral over physical degrees of freedom give contradicting results on curved background and on manifolds with boundaries. This looks like a conflict between unitarity and covariance.

Spacetime Paths as a Whole

open access: yesQuantum Reports, 2020
The mathematical similarities between non-relativistic wavefunction propagation in quantum mechanics and image propagation in scalar diffraction theory are used to develop a novel understanding of time and paths through spacetime as a whole.

Path Integral Action for a Resonant Detector of Gravitational Waves in the Generalized Uncertainty Principle Framework

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
The Heisenberg uncertainty principle is modified by the introduction of an observer-independent minimal length. In this work, we have considered the resonant gravitational wave detector in the modified uncertainty principle framework, where we have used ...

Q-curvature and path integral complexity

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
We discuss the interpretation of path integral optimization as a uniformization problem in even dimensions. This perspective allows for a systematical construction of the higher-dimensional path integral complexity in holographic conformal field theories
