Semiclassical limit of new path integral formulation from reduced phase space loop quantum gravity [PDF]
Recently, a new path integral formulation of Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) has been derived in arXiv:1910.03763 from the reduced phase space formulation of the canonical LQG. This paper focuses on the semiclassical analysis of this path integral formulation.

Lorentzian path integral for quantum tunneling and WKB approximation for wave-function
Recently, the Lorentzian path integral formulation using the Picard–Lefschetz theory has attracted much attention in quantum cosmology. In this paper, we analyze the tunneling amplitude in quantum mechanics by using the Lorentzian Picard–Lefschetz ...

Time-Slicing Path-integral in Curved Space [PDF]
Path integrals constitute powerful representations for both quantum and stochastic dynamics. Yet despite many decades of intensive studies, there is no consensus on how to formulate them for dynamics in curved space, or how to make them covariant with ...

S-matrix path integral approach to symmetries and soft theorems [PDF]
We explore a formulation of the S-matrix in terms of the path integral with specified asymptotic data, as originally proposed by Arefeva, Faddeev, and Slavnov.

Effective Actions for Regge Piecewise Flat Quantum Gravity
We review the construction of the path integral and the corresponding effective action for the Regge formulation of General Relativity under the assumption that the short-distance structure of the spacetime is not a smooth 4-manifold, but a piecewise ...

Path-integral formulation of closed strings [PDF]
We construct the covariant path integral for the Neveu-Schwarz-Ramond superstring in superspace, with manifest invariance under diffeomorphisms and local supersymmetry transformations. Spin structure is introduced, and the constraints imposed by modular invariance on fermionic string models examined.

Symmetries in the path integral formulation of the Langevin dynamics [PDF]
We study a dissipative Langevin dynamics in the path integral formulation using the Martin-Siggia-Rose formalism. The effective action is supersymmetric and we identify the supercharges.

Pauli-Villars’ regularization of ghosts in path-integral string formulation
I consider Pauli-Villars’ regulators for the ghosts in the path-integral string formulation and show how they preserve conformal invariance. I calculate the regulator contributions to the effective action and to the central charge and demonstrate the ...

Path integral implementation of relational quantum mechanics
Relational formulation of quantum mechanics is based on the idea that relational properties among quantum systems, instead of the independent properties of a quantum system, are the most fundamental elements to construct quantum mechanics.

T T ¯ $$ T\overline{T} $$ + Λ2 from a 2d gravity path integral
We develop a two-dimensional gravity path integral formulation of the T T ¯ $$ T\overline{T} $$ + Λ2 deformation of quantum field theory. This provides an exactly solvable generalization of the pure T T ¯ $$ T\overline{T} $$ deformation that is relevant ...
