The endpoint factor satisfies
For every smooth scalar ,
These identities retain the complete kinetic, trace-kinetic, and mass vertex.
Proof. Contract the tensor numerator in (eq:Nfactor) with the endpoint maps. This gives the first identity in (eq:Ntrace); taking its trace in dimension four gives the second.
Substitute into :
The two trace contributions cancel exactly. The mass identity is the second trace formula.
