Keywords:
Path integral, gauge transformation, magnetic field


Abstract:
Using the path integral approach, we derive a closed-form expression for the propagator of a charged particle in a constant magnetic field. Then, we investigate the behavior of the propagator under gauge transformations of the vector potential, and we discuss some symmetry features of this system.
