At order , use one anisotropic quartic vertex and one -invariant quartic vertex joined by two fast propagators. With four equal external component labels, the bubble renormalizes ; with external labels in two equal pairs, it also renormalizes . The anisotropic vertex fixes the component index carried by the internal lines, so none of these mixed diagrams contains an independent component loop. Consequently no correction proportional to occurs at order or .
