Abstract

The dynamics of many-fermion systems is analyzed in terms of a mean-field expansion obtained from a functional integral representation of quantum amplitudes proposed by Kerman, Levit and Troudet. The dynamical problem is formulated as an initial conditions problem. Lowest order corrections to the mean-field (stationary phase) dynamics, including exchange effects, involve dynamical two-body correlations. The effective dynamics of the one-body density is analyzed in this framework.
