The following auxiliary operation is finite-dimensional polynomial algebra, not a probability expectation:
Let
Then
Indeed, the coefficient of in the quadratic source is its polarization on .
The diagonal components of are
Its off-diagonal components are
Thus the diagonal quadratic contraction table, in order , is
The off-diagonal squares are
and all mixed contractions involving two different off-diagonal components, or one diagonal and one off-diagonal component, vanish.
These tables follow by multiplying the displayed rational change-of-basis matrix with (eq:Ltable). They provide a contraction calculation independent of the double polarization sum.
