Abstract
The quantization of systems with first- and second-class constraints
within the coherent-state path-integral approach is extended to quantum systems
with fermionic degrees of freedom. As in the bosonic case the importance of
path-integral measures for Lagrange multipliers, which in this case are in
general expected to be elements of a Grassmann algebra, is emphasized.
Several examples with first- and second-class constraints are discussed.
