The kth correlation function is the density of the kth factorial moment measure: integrating a nonnegative test function against Rk​ gives the expectation of its sum over ordered k-tuples of distinct points. For exactly m exchangeably labelled points with symmetric joint density fm​, it is m!/(m−k)! times the marginal density of k labels. It is not normalized to have total mass one.
