Variational Calculation of Effective Classical Potential at $T\ne 0$ to Higher Orders

Abstract

Using the new variational approach proposed recently for a systematic improvement of the locally harmonic Feynman-Kleinert approximation to path integrals we calculate the partition function of the anharmonic oscillator for all temperatures and coupling strength with high accuracy.
