Description:
A short introduction is given into the theory of the Feynman path integral in quantum mechanics. The general formulation in Riemann spaces is given based on the Weyl- ordering prescription, respectively product ordering prescription, in the quantum Hamiltonian. Also, the theory of space-time transformations and separation of variables is outlined. As elementary examples, the usual harmonic oscillator, the radial harmonic oscillator, and the Coulomb potential are discussed.
