Beyond complex Langevin equations II: a positive representation of Feynman path integrals directly in the Minkowski time

Recently found positive representation for an arbitrary complex, gaussian weight is used to construct a statistical formulation of gaussian path integrals directly in the Minkowski time. The positivity of Minkowski weights is achieved by doubling the number of real variables. The continuum limit of the new representation exists only if some of the additional couplings tend to infinity and are tuned in a specific way. The construction is then successfully applied to three quantum mechanical examples including a particle in a constant magnetic field -- a simplest prototype of a Wilson line. Further generalizations are shortly discussed and an intriguing interpretation of new variables is alluded to.Comment: 16 pages, 2 figures, references adde

Hamiltonian anomalies of bound states in QED

The Bound State in QED is described in systematic way by means of nonlocal irreducible representations of the nonhomogeneous Poincare group and Dirac's method of quantization. As an example of application of this method we calculate triangle diagram $Para-Positronium \to \gamma\gamma$. We show that the Hamiltonian approach to Bound State in QED leads to anomaly-type contribution to creation of pair of parapositronium by two photon.Comment: 12 pages, 2 figures.
