A new path-integral theory is developed to calculate the photoemission spectra (PES) of correlated many-electron systems. The application to the study on Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 (Bi2212) and boron-doped diamond (BDD) is discussed in details. It is found that the isotopic shift in the angle-resolved photoemission spectra of Bi2212 is due to the off-diagonal quadratic electron-phonon (e-ph) coupling, whereas the presence of electron-electron repulsion partially suppresses this effect. For the BDD, a semiconductor-metal phase transition, which is induced by increasing the e-ph coupling and dopant concentration, is reproduced by our theory. Additionally, the presence of Fermi edge and phonon step-like structure in PES is found to be due to a co-existence of itinerant and localized electronic states in BDD.
