## Time order

-/

/-- For a field specification `𝓕`, `timeOrderF` is the linear map

  `FieldOpFreeAlgebra 𝓕 →ₗ[ℂ] FieldOpFreeAlgebra 𝓕`

  defined by its action on the basis `ofCrAnListF φs`, taking
  `ofCrAnListF φs` to

  `crAnTimeOrderSign φs • ofCrAnListF (crAnTimeOrderList φs)`.

  That is, `timeOrderF` time-orders the field operators and multiplies by the sign of the
  time order.

  The notation `𝓣ᶠ(a)` is used for `timeOrderF a` -/
