Abstract

We construct the Feynman integrands for a class of exponentially growing time-dependent potentials as white noise functionals. We show that they solve the Schrödinger equation. The Morse potential is considered as a special case.

The Feynman integrand as a white noise distribution beyond perturbation theory

Martin Grothaus, Anna Vogel, Christopher Casenas Bernido +1 more

In this note the concepts of path integrals and techniques how to construct them are presented. Here we concentrate on a White Noise approach. Combining White Noise techniques with a generalized time‐dependent Doss' formula Feynman integrands are constructed as white noise distributions beyond perturbation theory.

Feynman integrals for nonsmooth and rapidly growing potentials

de Faria, M, Oliveira, MJ, Ludwig Streit

The Feynman integral for the Schrodinger propagator is constructed as a generalized function of white noise, for a linear space of potentials spanned by finite (signed) measures of bounded support and Laplace transforms of such measures, i.e., locally singular as well as rapidly growing at infinity. Remarkably, all these propagators admit a perturbation expansion. (C) 2005 American Institute of Physics.

Feynman integrals as Hida distributions: the case of non-perturbative potentials

Martin Grothaus, Ludwig Streit, Anna Vogel

Feynman integrands are constructed as Hida distributions. For our approach we first have to construct solutions to a corresponding Schroedinger equation with time-dependent potential. This is done by a generalization of the Doss approach to time-dependent potentials. This involves an expectation w.r.t. a complex scaled Brownian motion. As examples polynomial potentials of degree $4n+2, n\in\mathbb N,$ and singular potentials of the form $\frac{1}{|x|^n}, n\in\mathbb N$ and $\frac{1}{x^n}, n\in\mathbb N,$ are worked out.

Mathematics of the Feynman path integral

(and its generalisations that include magnetic fields) can be roughly divided into two classes. In the aproaches of the first class that we shall not discuss here in detail the Feynman integral is not supposed to be a genuine integral, but is specified as some generalised functional on an appropriate space of functions, which can be defined, for example, as the limit of certain discrete approximations (see e.g. [16], [44] and more recent papers [24], [25], [34]), by means of analytical continuation (see e.g. [26], [23] and references therein), by extensions of Parceval’s identity and by related axiomatic definitions (see [2], [5], [30], [11], [42] and references therein) or by means of the white noise analysis (see [22]), see also [46] for the discussion of path integral applied to the Dirac equation. These approaches still cover only a very restrictive class of potentials, for example, singular potentials were considered only by white noise analysis approach but only in one-dimensional case (see e.g. [6] and references therein). In the approaches of the second class, one tries to define the infinite-dimensional Feynmann integral as a genuine integral over a bona fide σ-additive measure on an appropriate space of trajectories. The first attempt made in [19] to construct such a measure was erronious and led to understanding that there is no direct generalisation of Wiener measure that can give an analog of FeynmanKac formula for the case of Schrodinger operators. A correct construction of the Feynman integral in terms of the Wiener measure was proposed in [15] and was based on the idea of the rotation of the classical trajectories in complex
