It is pointed out that there are some fundamental difficulties with the frequently used continuous-time formalism of the spin-coherent-state path integral. They arise already in a single-spin system and at the level of the "classical action" not to speak of fluctuations around the "classical path". Similar difficulties turn out to be present in the case of the (boson-)coherent-state path integral as well; although partially circumventable by an ingenious trick (Klauder's ∊-prescription) at the "classical level", they manifest themselves at the level of fluctuations. Detailed analysis of the origin of these difficulties makes it clear that the only way of avoiding them is to work with the proper discrete-time formalism. The thesis is explicitly illustrated with a harmonic oscillator and a spin under a constant magnetic field.

Propagator for spinning particle described in the Feshbach–Villars formalism is set up using fermionic coherent state path integral. The fermionization of the charge-spin symmetry is presented following the Schwinger recipe. The explicit calculations are done in the free case and magnetic interaction using the Foldy–Wouthuysen tranformation. The spectrum and wave functions are deduced.

Propagator for spinning particle described in the Feshbach–Villars formalism is set up using the bosonic coherent state path integral. The boson model for the charge-spin symmetry is presented following the Schwinger recipe. The calculations are explicitly evaluated in the case of the step potential. The perturbation technique is used and the series are exactly summed.
