نویسنده
چکیده
The authors have introduced recently a “microcanonical functional integral” which yields directly the density of states as a function of energy. The phase of the functional integral is Jacobi’s action, the extrema of which are classical solutions at a given energy. This approach is general but is especially well suited to gravitating systems because for them the total energy can be fixed simply as a boundary condition on the gravitational field. In this paper, however, we ignore gravity and illustrate the use of Jacobi’s action by computing the density of states for a nonrelativistic harmonic oscillator.

The authors have recently proposed a “microcanonical functional integral” representation of the density of quantum states of the gravitational field. The phase of this real–time functional integral is determined by a “microcanonical” or Jacobi action, the extrema of which are classical solutions at fixed total energy, not at fixed total time interval as in Hamilton’s action. This approach is fu...
