On the quantum mechanics of dissipative lagrangians
Description
An appropriate path differential measure is employed for obtaining the path integral representation of the propagator of a particle with a time dependent 'mass'. The evaluations are restricted to quadratic Lagrangians and the propagator for the damped harmonic oscillator is given explicitly.
