内容説明
Emphasizes the many applications that have been found for path integrals in quantum mechanics, statistical physics, field theory, and optics. Covers both the Feynman integral of quantum mechanics and the Wiener integral of probability theory. Initial experience is gained with solvable integrals and some of the formal and general properties developes.
