For compact ghost coefficient functions, modulo integrated total derivatives,

Equivalently,

where

Proof. Naturality gives . The flat metric is held fixed, so its scalar density instead has variation

Weight these identities by and and integrate the divergence terms. This proves (eq:sSfirst). One more integration by parts and the displayed stress divergence give (eq:B).

The Einstein–Hilbert variation is a compact divergence. The variation of is zero by Lemma lem:nonlinear.
