Static Wick's terms #
For a list ฯs
of ๐.FieldOp
, and a Wick contraction ฯsฮ
of ฯs
, the element
of ๐.FieldOpAlgebra
, ฯsฮ.staticWickTerm
is defined as
ฯsฮ.sign โข ฯsฮ.staticContract * ๐([ฯsฮ]แตแถ)
.
This is a term which appears in the static version Wick's theorem.

Instances For
For the empty list []
of ๐.FieldOp
, the staticWickTerm
of the Wick contraction
corresponding to the empty set โ
(the only Wick contraction of []
) is 1
.
For a list ฯs = ฯโโฆฯโ
of ๐.FieldOp
, a Wick contraction ฯsฮ
of ฯs
, and an element ฯ
of
๐.FieldOp
, then (ฯsฮ โฉฮ ฯ 0 none).staticWickTerm
is equal to
ฯsฮ.sign โข ฯsฮ.staticWickTerm * ๐(ฯ :: [ฯsฮ]แตแถ)
The proof of this result relies on
staticContract_insert_none
to rewrite the static contract.sign_insert_none_zero
to rewrite the sign.
For a list ฯs = ฯโโฆฯโ
of ๐.FieldOp
, a Wick contraction ฯsฮ
of ฯs
, an element ฯ
of
๐.FieldOp
, and a k
in ฯsฮ.uncontracted
, (ฯsฮ โฉฮ ฯ 0 (some k)).wickTerm
is equal
to the product of
- the sign
๐ข(ฯ, ฯโโฆฯแตขโโ)
- the sign
ฯsฮ.sign
ฯsฮ.staticContract
s โข [anPart ฯ, ofFieldOp ฯs[k]]โ
wheres
is the sign associated with movingฯ
through uncontracted fields inฯโโฆฯโโโ
- the normal ordering of
[ฯsฮ]แตแถ
with the field operatorฯs[k]
removed.
The proof of this result ultimately relies on
staticContract_insert_some
to rewrite static contractions.normalOrder_uncontracted_some
to rewrite normal orderings.sign_insert_some_zero
to rewrite signs.
For a list ฯs = ฯโโฆฯโ
of ๐.FieldOp
, a Wick contraction ฯsฮ
of ฯs
, the following relation
holds
ฯ * ฯsฮ.staticWickTerm = โ k, (ฯsฮ โฉฮ ฯ 0 k).staticWickTerm
where the sum is over all k
in Option ฯsฮ.uncontracted
, so k
is either none
or some k
.
The proof proceeds as follows:
ofFieldOp_mul_normalOrder_ofFieldOpList_eq_sum
is used to expandฯ ๐([ฯsฮ]แตแถ)
as a sum overk
inOption ฯsฮ.uncontracted
of terms involving[anPart ฯ, ฯs[k]]โ
.- Then
staticWickTerm_insert_zero_none
andstaticWickTerm_insert_zero_some
are used to equate terms.
