Today in quantum mechanics class, they introduced and analyzed the concept of the propagator to start discussing path integrals. Having also taken a course on complex systems a while ago, I noticed the similarity between the composition law of the propagator and the CK equation (Chapman-Kolmogorv equation) for Markov processes: I was wondering if anyone could give me some information regarding this connection, hoping it makes sense!
