Abstract
Three approaches to functional integration are compared: Feynman's definiti on and the Feynman-Kac formula, Bryce DeWitt's formalism, and the authors' axiomatic scheme. They serve to highlight the evolution of functional integ ration in the second half of the twentieth century. (C) 2000 American Insti tute of Physics. [S0022-2488(00)00306-6].
