Primes

  • Principle of Least Action
    • extends the principle to field-theoretic amplitudes and Green's functions

      This sourceDevelops quantum action principle for field theory; shows how to derive Green's functions and scattering amplitudes from variation of action; establishes source-dependent action as generator of field-theoretic amplitudes. Generalizes Feynman path integral to fields; foundation for modern perturbative quantum field theory.

      Schwinger's paper builds quantized field theory on a Lagrange function and a stationary-action principle that yields the field equations; it does not cover the classical or all-physics framing.

Verification

Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
