Quantum Phenomenology with the Path Integral Approach
A quantum measurement model based upon restricted path-integrals allows us to study measurements of generalized position in various one-dimensional systems of phenomenological interest. After a general overview of the method we discuss the cases of a harmonic oscillator, a bistable potential and two coupled systems, briefly illustrating their applications.

متن کاملil Path integral approach to the quantum fidelity amplitude
The Loschmidt echo is a measure of quantum irreversibility and is determined by the fidelity amplitude of an imperfect time-reversal protocol. Fidelity amplitude plays an important role both in the foundations of quantum mechanics and in its applications, such as time-resolved electronic spectroscopy. We derive an exact path integral formula for the fidelity amplitude and use it to obtain a ser...

متن کاملBlack holes as quantum membranes: path integral approach
We describe the horizon of a quantum black hole in terms of a dynamical surface which defines the boundary of space-time as seen by external static observers, and we define a path integral in the presence of this dynamical boundary. Using renormalization group arguments, we find that the dynamics of the horizon is governed by the action of the relativistic bosonic membrane. From the thermodynam...
متن کاملQuantum criticality for few-body systems: path-integral approach.
We present the path-integral approach to treat quantum phase transitions and critical phenomena for few-body quantum systems. Allowing the space and time variables to have discrete values, we turn the quantum problem into an effective classical lattice problem. Imposing the constraint that any change in space time must preserve the scaling invariance of Brownian paths, we show that the mapped c...
