informal_definition WickAlgebra where
math :≈ "
Modifications of this may be needed.
A structure with the following data:
- A ℤ₂-graded algebra A.
- A map from `ψ : 𝓔 × SpaceTime → A` where 𝓔 are field colors.
- A map `ψ₊ : 𝓔 × SpaceTime → A`.
- A map `ψ₋ : 𝓔 × SpaceTime → A`.
Subject to the conditions:
- The sum of `ψ0` and `ψ1` is `ψ`.
- Two fields super-commute if there colors are not dual to each other.
- The super-commutator of two fields is always in the
center of the algebra. "

math :≈ "A function from WickMonomial to WickAlgebra which takes a monomial and
returns the element in `WickAlgebra` defined as follows
- The ψ₊ fields are move to the right.
- The ψ₋ fields are moved to the left.
- Othewise the order of the fields is preserved."
