Abstract: In this article, we consider a complex-valued and a measure-valued measure on $C [0,t]$, the space of all real-valued continuous functions on $[0,t]$. Using these concepts, we establish the measure-valued Feynman-Kac formula and we prove that this formula satisfies a Volterra integral equation. The work here is patterned to some extent on earlier works by Kluvanek in 1983 and by Lapidus in 1987, but the present setting requires a number of new concepts and results.
