We now calculate the expectation value
Once again only the field-even part of the action will yield a non-zero result, so that we have
Using the form of
shown in
Equation (A.2), and if we already replace the expectation values
of squared fields by
or
whenever possible, as
well as replace
by
, we get
We may now use the known value of the expectation value of the squared sum, found in Appendix B, Equation (B.15),
as well as the fact that it can be shown that
as one can also see in Appendix B, Equations (B.11) and (B.13), in order to write for our expectation value
Next we group all terms containing
and
simplify to get
The sum over can now be done in all terms of the first group,
yielding
We must now perform the sum indicated. We get from Appendix B, Equation (B.5),
We have therefore the final result
