Schwinger's Quantum Action Principle From Dirac's Formulation Through Feynman's Path Integrals, the Schwinger-Keldysh Method, Quantum Field Theory, to Source Theory /
Starting from the earlier notions of stationary action principles, these tutorial notes shows how Schwinger's Quantum Action Principle descended from Dirac's formulation, which independently led Feynman to his path-integral formulation of quantum mechanics. Part I brings out in more detail...
