Lecture

Path Integral Formalism and Quantum Thermodynamics

Description

This lecture covers the path integral formalism in quantum mechanics, focusing on quantum thermodynamics. The instructor explains the quantum propagator, quantum thermodynamics, and the proof of the path integral formalism. The lecture also delves into the free particle propagator and the short-time approximation of the propagator. Practical applications and derivations from quantum thermodynamics are discussed, emphasizing the importance of finite calculations and normalization factors.
