Scalar-field cubic and quartic Feynman vertices
ID: scalar-field-cubic-and-quartic-feynman-vertices
With interaction density , the Dyson series contains and hence cubic vertex and quartic vertex . Wick contractions into the labelled slots cancel each factorial. Position integration gives the four-momentum delta function, and equivalent unlabelled contractions leave the Feynman-diagram symmetry factor. The free line carries in the mostly-minus convention.
