Derivation of the Schrödinger equation from the Hamilton-Jacobi equation in Feynman’s path integral formulation of quantum mechanics

It is shown how the time-dependent Schrödinger equation may be simply derived from the dynamical postulate of Feynman’s path integral formulation of quantum mechanics and the Hamilton-Jacobi equation of classical mechanics. Schr¨odinger’s own published derivations of quantum wave equations, the firs...
