Abstract: The behavior of the Feynman-Kac propagator corresponding to a time-dependent measure on $R^n$ is studied. We prove the boundedness of the propagator in various function spaces on $R^n$, and obtain a uniqueness theorem for an exponentially bounded distributional solution to a nonautonomous heat equation.
