An Introduction into the Feynman Path Integral

In this lecture a short introduction is given into the theory of the Feynman path integral in quantum mechanics. The general formulation in Riemann spaces will be given based on the Weyl- ordering prescription, respectively product ordering prescription, in the quantum Hamiltonian. Also, the theory of space-time transformations and separation of variables will be outlined. As elementary examples I discuss the usual harmonic oscillator, the radial harmonic oscillator, and the Coulomb potential. Lecture given at the graduate college ''Quantenfeldtheorie und deren Anwendung in der Elementarteilchen- und Festk\"orperphysik'', Universit\"at Leipzig, 16-26 November 1992.
