Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This paper derives Feynman’s path integral formula from the Schrödinger equation. To this aim, the solution of the Schrödinger equation is expressed by the initial condition and Green’s function. This expression indicates that a wave function at the initial moment propagates to the final state through all possible spatial paths. The iteration of the expression embodies the spirit of the path integral. The Fourier transform of the Green’s function is utilized, which helps to convert the operator Hamiltonian into a numerical one. Then, the latter is spatially discretized, and finally the Hamiltonian is transformed into a Lagrangian. We point out the reason why the Schrödinger equation can be deduced in turn from the path integral formula with a certain approximation.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
