An investigation of coherent state path integrals as applied to a harmonic oscillator and a single spin

In this project two steps involved in the handling of path integrals are reexamined in detail for coherent state path integals. They concern the continuum limit approximation and the regularization of the formal path integrals. Restricting oneself to the harmonic oscillator, the technique of time sp...
