• Abstract: In this work a Feynman-Kac path integral method based on Levy measure has been proposed for solving the Cauchy problems associated with the space-time fractional Schroedinger equations arising in interacting systems in fractional quantum mechanics. The Continuous Time Random Walk(CTRW) model is used to simulate the underlying Levy process-a generalized Wiener process. Since we are interested to capture the lowest energy state of quantum systems, we use Pareto distribution as opposed to Mittag-Leffler random variables, which are more suitable for finite time. Adopting the CTRW model we have been able to simulate the space-time fractional diffusion process with comparable simplicity and convergence rate as in the case of a standard diffusion. We hope this paves an elegant way to solve space-time diffusion equations numerically through Fractional Feynman-Kac path integral technique as an alternative to fractional calculus.

  We study the propagator of the $1+1$ dimensional Salpeter Hamiltonian, describing a relativistic quantum particle with no spin. The analytical extension of the Hamiltonian in the complex plane allows us to formulate the equivalent problem, namely the B"aumer equation. This B"aumera corresponds to the Green function of a relativistic diffusion process that interpolates between Cauchy for small times and Gaussian diffusion for large times.
