Towards the Euclidean Formulation of Quantum Statistical Mechanics

  • Chapter
On Three Levels

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSB,volume 324))

Abstract

Several aspects of the Quantum Statistical Mechanics in the Euclidean Region are discussed. The axiomatic approach to the purely Euclidean formulation of QSM is proposed. Some reconstruction procedures of real time structures are presented. A new functional integral representation of multi-time Green functions by a bounded complex reflection positive measures is obtained.
