Recently ideas based on Feynman path integrals have also played an important role in areas of mathematics like low-dimensional topology and differential geometry, algebraic geometry, infinite-dimensional analysis and geometry, and number theory. The 2nd edition of LNM 523 is based on the two first authors' mathematical approach of this theory presented in its 1st edition in 1976. To take care of the many developments since then, an entire new chapter on the current forefront of research has been added. Except for this new chapter and the correction of a few misprints, the basic material and presentation of the first edition has been maintained. At the end of each chapter the reader will also find notes with further bibliographical information. 410 0$aLecture notes in mathematics (Springer-Verlag) ;$v523. 606 $aFeynman integrals 615 0$aFeynman integrals. 676 $a515.43 700 $aAlbeverio$b Sergio$044256 701 $aHoegh-Krohn$b Raphael$0334661 701 $aMazzucchi$b Sonia$0508832 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484526903321 996 $aMathematical Theory of Feynman Path Integrals$9774394 997 $aUNINA
