The stepwise path integral of the relativistic point particle
Abstract In this paper we present a stepwise construction of the path integral over relativistic orbits in Euclidean spacetime. It is shown that the apparent problems of this path integral, like the breakdown of the naive Chapman–Kolmogorov relation, can be solved by a careful analysis of the overco...
