Notes

  1. 1.

    The real part of \(\hbox{Tr} G(E^{\prime})\) only contributes to \(B(E)\) defined after Eq. (5.3) [5].

  2. 2.

    This form is strictly speaking only correct when neglecting repetitions of periodic orbits, for an expression taking them into account, see [8]. The contributions of repeated pairs are however damped exponentially like \(\hbox{e}^{-\lambda T/2}\) with their overall duration \(T\) compared to ones from pseudo orbits traversed once, as the number is the same in both cases, however the stability factors of the repeated ones are reduced. We can thus neglect them anyway when calculating the contributions of pseudo-orbit pairs.

  3. 3.

    An improved version considers a smooth classically small cut off at \(T_H/2\).

  4. 4.

    As we are considering positive as well as negative action differences in the \(s,u\)-integrals, the sign change of the actions is not important.

  5. 5.

    The \(T_0\) could have been introduced always when evaluating sums over orbits by sum rules, but in all cases considered up to now the semiclassical limit \(\hbar\rightarrow 0\) and the limit \(T_0\rightarrow 0\) commuted. This is not the case here, the resulting integrals do not exist for \(T_0=0.\)

  6. 6.

    As can be easily checked it is not possible to construct diagrams with a larger number of links where the number of links and of \((s,u)\)-coordinates needed to characterise the encounter configuration differs by one.
