Curvature-noise representation of a free filament ($⟨\xi (s)\xi (t)⟩=(k_{B}T/A)\delta (s-t)$)

The quadratic bending energy makes curvature a white noise field in the generalized thermal description. Integrate it twice, then subtract the affine least-squares projection to fix translation and tilt. With $u=x/L$ and $t=s/L$, the dimensionless kernel is $(u-t{)}_{+}-(1-t{)}^2/2-(1-3t^2+2t^3)(u-1/2)$. Its second spatial derivative is the source delta and its mean and first moment are zero. Its squared integral yields the free-filament variance with fixed translation and tilt.
