Graduate What Justifies the Grassmann Integral ∫dθ θ = 1?
Thank you. The rules for differentiation seems natural enough, and they do seem to give arguments for ∫dθ = 0, but not for ∫dθ θ =1.- FJ Rolfes

Graduate What Justifies the Grassmann Integral ∫dθ θ = 1?
I tried putting this in the math forum, but got no response: I can find various derivations of ∫ dθ = 0 which are satisfactory, but none of ∫dθ θ =1. Cheng and Li says it's just a normalization convention, of course that assumes that the integral is finite. Is this just a matter of...- FJ Rolfes
