HI, i would need some help to solve the Brownian motion given by the Weiner Integral(over paths):

[tex]\int \mathcal D [x_{t}]exp(-\int dt (m/2(\dot x)^{2}-V(x))[/tex]

for the case [tex]V(x)=\delta (x) +\delta (x-1)+\delta (x-2)[/tex]

any help would be appreciated, thanks

What do you mean by that: "solve the Brownian motion" ?

Can you please explain your notation? In particular, what is [tex]x_t[/tex], what is [tex]\dot x[/tex], and what is [tex]\mathcal D[/tex]?
