Augmented Langevin evaluation of imaginary-time Feynman path integrals

R. Badii, G. Broggi

An alternative formulation of the stochastic representation of the Feynman path-integral theory is introduced. Stationary (imaginary-time) paths are generated as solutions of suitable Zwanzig-Ramshaw augmented Langevin equations. The required equilibrium distribution is obtained for a freely chosen functional form of the fluctuations and its associated dissipative term, in the presence of a generalized reversible drift. The method is both theoretically and numerically advantageous with respect to the standard Langevin and hybrid algorithms.

Numerical path integration without Monte Carlo

Christopher C. Gerry, J. Kiefer

A numerical procedure for evaluating Feynman’s path integral in imaginary time without using the Monte Carlo ‘‘heat bath’’ method is discussed. The method is essentially iterative matrix multiplication and bears a close resemblance to the Feynman procedure of summing all paths by time slicing and then integrating. The procedure is used to determine ground-state energy eigenvalues for the harmonic oscillator, double-well anharmonic oscillator, and the Morse oscillator.
