Charge conjugation

charge conjugation symmetry (at vanishing density):

G±(τ, p) = −G∓(1/T − τ, p) ρ±(−ω, p) = −ρ∓(ω, p)

relates pos/neg parity channels using G+(τ, p) and ρ+(ω, p) positive- (negative-) parity states propagate forward (backward) in euclidean time negative part of spectrum of ρ+ ↔ positive part of ρ− example: single state

G+(τ) = A+e−m+τ + A−e−m−(1/T−τ) ρ+(ω)/(2π) = A+δ(ω − m+) + A−δ(ω + m−)
