Feynman diagrams
Complete calculations of Green's functions is a rather formidable task. Even the basic imaginary time evolution operator itself is an infinite series to all orders in the interaction Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle V(τ)} . One can simply get lost in the dozens of integrals; his physical intuition also doesn't get things any better. Feynman diagrams are both an exact mathematical representation of perturbation theory in infinite order and a powerful pictorial method showing in a unique way the physical content of a given expression.
