description

An extension of the path integral to non-linear systems driven by a Poissonian white noise process is presented. It is shown that at the limit when the time increment becomes infinitesimal the Kolmogorov— Feller equation is fully restored. Applications to linear and non-linear systems with different distribution of the Dirac's deltas occurrences are performed and results are compared with analytical solutions (when available) and Monte Carlo simulation.
