Non-perturbative double scaling limits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Recently, the author has proposed a generalization of the matrix and vector models approach to the theory of random surfaces and polymers. The idea is to replace the simple matrix or vector (path) integrals by gauge theory or non-linear sigma model (path)

Numerical calculations of the probabilities for quantum transitions in atoms and molecules by the path integral method

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
The probabilities of molecular quantum transitions induced by electromagnetic field are expressed as path integrals of a real alternating functional. We propose a new method for computing these integrals by means of recurrence relations.

Simplified path integral for supersymmetric quantum mechanics and type-A trace anomalies

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2018
Particles in a curved space are classically described by a nonlinear sigma model action that can be quantized through path integrals. The latter require a precise regularization to deal with the derivative interactions arising from the nonlinear kinetic ...

Path Integrals in Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics

open access: yes, 2007
I discuss the use of path integrals to study strong-interaction physics from first principles. The underlying theory is cast into path integrals which are evaluated numerically using Monte Carlo methods on a space-time lattice.

Building a path-integral calculus: a covariant discretization approach

open access: yes, 2019
Path integrals are a central tool when it comes to describing quantum or thermal fluctuations of particles or fields. Their success dates back to Feynman who showed how to use them within the framework of quantum mechanics.

Coordinate Independence of of Quantum-Mechanical Path Integrals

open access: yes, 2000
We develop simple rules for performing integrals over products of distributions in coordinate space. Such products occur in perturbation expansions of path integrals in curvilinear coordinates, where the interactions contain terms of the form dot q^2 q^n,

Path Integrals for Parastatistics

open access: yes, 2004
We demonstrate that parastatistics can be quantized using path integrals by calculating the generating functionals for time-ordered products of both free and interacting parabose and parafermi fields in terms of path integrals.

Feynman-Schwinger Representation method for bound states [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
In nuclear and particle physics one is often faced with problems where perturbation theory is not applicable. An example of this is the description of bound states.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Feynman path integrals for discrete-variable systems: Walks on Hamiltonian graphs

open access: yesPhysical Review Research
We propose a natural, parameter-free, discrete-variable formulation of Feynman path integrals. We show that for discrete-variable quantum systems, Feynman path integrals take the form of walks on the graph whose weighted adjacency matrix is the ...
