Abstract
We present a direct path integral derivation of the propagator in the presence of a step potential. The derivation makes use of the Path Decomposition Expansion (PDX), and also of the definition of the propagator as a limit of lattice paths.
Why This Paper Matters
- This paper contributes to the Quantum Simulation research area in the Quantum Articles archive.
- It adds a 2009 reference point for readers tracking recent quantum research.
- We present a direct path integral derivation of the propagator in the presence of a step potential.
