A correlation function is a statistical correlation between random variables at two different points in space, time, or other parameter space, usually as a function of the variable distance between these points. In QFT, field autocorrelation functions are propagators, so use the "propagator" tag, instead.

Relation between Green’s functions and connected Green’s functions

From the given expression for $C_n$ we can write, $$C_n = \left[ \frac{\partial^n W(J)}{\partial J^n}\right]_{J=0},$$ where $W(J) = \ln Z(J) = \ln \left[\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n!} J^n G_n\right]$ …

Relation between Green’s functions and connected Green’s functions [closed]

I attempt to understand the $0$-dimensional QFT from these QFT lecture notes by Ronald Kleiss from 2019. The author defines the generating function $Z(J)$ and its logarithm in the following way. $$Z(J …
