Own gravity and ghost Feynman rules
Q05: P.6 continued (one-loop κ 3 three-point sector) — honest partial › Own gravity and ghost Feynman rules · lines 482–493
Derived in code/p6q05/gravity.py from the XVI-P declared action: , the
gauge fixing obtained by eliminating (), ,
with , and ,
(XVI-P P13 -images). Checks: the EH quadratic form is gauge invariant. EH plus gauge fixing equals
(XVI-P ), so the graviton propagator is with (Q4S).
Validation against pinned XVI-P two-point poles, all structures including evanescent ones, constant ratio (own/XVI-P):
D01 (V3V3) , D03 (ghost loop) , D06 () , D13 () .
is the Q04 convention factor (D11). Disclosure: D13 has the opposite overall sign: the orientation of the
slot differs between the two codes. Own rows use own D13 consistently. The ghost equation holds at two
points () and graph by graph at three points (, ).
