X-B@3#eq:contraction-check
To verify the quantum interpretation without constructing a second product programme, introduce the auxiliary kernel
It is symmetric with these conventions. Both and are smooth. For the pair (A1)–(A2), consider only the auxiliary contraction expression
It is well defined because pairing with a smooth function requires only compact vertex coefficients.
The Wick expression terminates exactly:
Consequently
For , this is exactly . The auxiliary expression supplies the usual one-contraction retarded interpretation DF; it does not constitute a claimed family of time-ordered maps.
