The definition gives
In particular, is a compact, continuous, ghost-number-zero scalar functional defined by finite Taylor extraction from the X-I-ST interaction.
The two functionals are linearly independent modulo constants. No distributional product, Green operator, or -dependent coefficient is used.
Proof. The coupling derivative and order extraction in (eq:polarization) leave . The coefficient of in
is . Multiplication by proves (eq:moment).
Smooth compact weights give continuity in the compact-open smooth topology. Choose a test variation equal to one near and zero near ; the derivative vector of is then . Interchanging the supports gives , proving independence.
