The tensor is smooth and compact, depends linearly on , and satisfies

for a compact distribution . Therefore

The assignment

is a well-defined linear element of the ordinary free on-shell field algebra. Finite products, adjoints, and their free contractions exist. Its class is independent of the chosen time cutoff.

Proof. Smoothness follows from Lemma lem:linear-smoothing. The commutator with a time cutoff is supported in a bounded time band. Spacelike compactness makes its support compact.

The retarded and advanced identities are

Hence . The retarded and advanced solutions of that compact source agree, so

has compact support and . Pair with a smooth homogeneous field to obtain the classical shell equality.

The smooth representative is an ordinary compact field test, so the usual free on-shell algebra admits it. Two choices have a smooth compact difference with . Then , with smooth compact. The free equation ideal and the bisolution contraction kill that difference.
