Description

The Feynman path integral is constructed for systems the configuration space of which is a discrete finite set. The construction is based on the operator formulation of quantum mechanics in finite discrete space. Coordinations between operators and discrete symbols (real matrices) are derived, and an analogue of the *-multiplication is introduced for discrete symbols. It is also shown that the classical limit of quantum mechanics in discrete finite space is not well defined. (author). 14 refs
