Description
The Feynman Path Integral Method is a very powerful technique for handling physical problems such as polymers, disordered materials, semiconductors, nuclear physics, etc. The conference gathered active physicists to present their new work at the forefront of Path Integrals. The material presented at the conference will be very useful to students and researchers working on the Path Integral Method. All the lectures were given by prominent physicists, such as Larry Schulman, J R Klauder, H Kleinert, A Inomata, J T Devreese, F Wiegel, etc. Altogether, thirty-five papers were presented at the conference.
