These different representations, although equivalent quantum mechanically, lead to different semiclassicallimits. Two such semiclassical formulas were derived in [1] for the two corresponding path integral formssuggested by Klauder and Skagerstan in [2]. Each of these formulas involve trajectories governed by a differentclassical representation of the Hamiltonian operator: the P representation in one case and the Q representationin other. In this paper we construct a third representation of the path integral whose semiclassical limit involvesdirectly the Weyl representation of the Hamiltonian operator, i.e., the classical Hamiltonian itself. 2005 artículo científico 0103-9733 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=46435114 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=464 Brazilian Journal of Physics application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Física Brazilian Journal of Physics (Brasil) Num.1 Vol.35
