Domain-specific

• Thermal Quantum Field Theory
  • Bosonic fields are periodic and fermionic fields antiperiodic around that thermal circle, giving discrete bosonic and fermionic Matsubara frequencies

    This sourceIntroduces the imaginary-time expansion of the grand partition function and the discrete frequencies that bear his name. The periodic/antiperiodic boundary condition itself is the KMS condition, from Kubo (1957) and Martin and Schwinger (1959).

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
