The Hamiltonian form of the path integral for theories with a gauge freedom is reviewed
along the lines developed by Batalin, Fradkin and Vilkovisky. The formalism, which can be …

Recent researches have shown that it is possible to obtain information about the physical
content of nontrivial quantum field theories by semiclassical methods. This article reviews …

We present evidence for the following conjecture: when quantized, the magnetic monopole
soliton solutions constructed by't Hooft and Polyakov, as modified by Prasad, Sommerfield …

In this paper the connection between standard perturbation theory techniques and the new
Bern-Kosower calculational rules for gauge theory is clarified. For one-loop effective actions …

The Handbook of Feynman Path Integrals appears just fifty years after Richard Feynman
published his pioneering paper in 1948 entitled" Space-Time Approach to Non-Relativistic …

We review the status and present range of applications of the “string-inspired” approach to
perturbative quantum field theory. This formalism offers the possibility of computing effective …

This is a concise graduate level introduction to analytical functional methods in quantum
field theory. Functional integral methods provide relatively simple solutions to a wide range …

The ordering of operators in the Yang-Mills Hamiltonian is determined for the V 0= 0 gauge
and for a general noncovariant gauge χ (V i)= 0, with χ a linear function of the spatial …

This paper describes the quantum theory of solitons—the localized solutions of the classical
field equations. The scattering matrix for the processes with solitons is defined within the …
