The diagonal change of the outgoing occupation kernel is

Its frequency-weighted integral is absolutely convergent:

The total excess is

It equals .

The change is not asserted nonnegative. The interference term can change the background energy, and is not a rank-one mean-amplitude addition of the Em03-F type.

Proof. Let . Gaussian differentiation of the Weyl characteristic function gives

and the cosine contraction vanishes. Also

Expand the occupation expectation using (eq:annconjugation). The squared displacement terms give . Their source cross term is . The contractions with the background add . Since , this is (eq:occupationchange). The computation can first be made on compact-band test kernels and then extended by continuity.

Lemma lem:compactregularity and pointwise scattering unitarity give

Cauchy–Schwarz proves absolute integrability of the interference term. Summing the two ends and using scattering unitarity proves (eq:totalenergy).
