In this note we study the properties of a sequence of approximate propagators for the Schrödinger equation, in the spirit of Feynman’s path integrals. Precisely, we consider Hamiltonian operators arising as the Weyl quantization of a quadratic form in phase space, plus a bounded potential perturbation in the form of a pseudodifferential operator with a rough symbol. It is known that the corresponding Schrödinger propagator is a generalized metaplectic operator. This naturally motivates the…
