Path Integral Approximation

Path Integral Approximation is a mathematical technique in theoretical physics and quantum mechanics that belongs to the class of approximation methods, specifically distinguished by its formulation of quantum amplitudes as sums over all possible paths weighted by their action, enabling the computation of transition probabilities through functional integration.
