Towards the Classification of Exactly Solvable Feynman Path Integrals: $δ$-Function Perturbations and Boundary-Problems as Miscellaneous Solvable Models

Abstract

Invited talk given at the ``International Workshop on `Symmetry Methods in Physics' in memory of Ya.\ A.\ Smorodinsky, 5--10 July 1993, Dubna, Russia; to appear in the proceedings. In this contribution I present further results on steps towards a Table of Feynman Path Integrals. Whereas the usual path integral solutions of the harmonic oscillator (Gaussian path integrals), of the radial harmonic oscillator (Besselian path integrals), and the (modified) Pöschl-Teller potential(s) (Legendrian path integrals) are well known and can be performed explicitly by exploiting the convolution properties of the various types, a perturbative method opens other possibilities for calculating path integrals. Here I want to demonstrate the perturbation expansion method for point interactions and boundary problems in path integrals.
