Abstract

Using a Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation coupled with Fourier path integral methods, expressions are derived for the numerical evaluation of the microcanonical density of states for quantum particles obeying Boltzmann statistics. A numerical algorithmis suggested to evaluate the quantum density of states and illustrated on a one-dimensional model system.
