Well I was hopeful that like for the point particles, the integrals in between the two fixed points would compensate
But from what I can see, I suspect that you just get more and more terms
It's basically a Cauchy horizon thing
A point at a time $t_n$ is gonna depend on all the terms of the lattice in the past cone
Although
Hopefully maybe I can integrate out at least everything not in the boundaries
Yeah I think that's the thing
Integrating over all the field configuration at $t_1$ leaves me a whole bunch of field configurations at time $t_2$ and the ones at $t_0$
Might take a while though
I need to do from $x_i -a$ to $x_i + a$ and $t_0$ to $t_3$, I think

@ACuriousMind It's so prominent in numerics I recently filled out a form for a national computing center asking what field I was in, with the choices being things like "astrophysics" or "chemistry" or "plasma physics" or else "lattice QCD." One of these is more specific than the others...
Ok here's something that really bothers me. Why are there so many people who randomly put newlines but not blank lines into the text they write on this and many other sites? Do they realize all they've done is insert linebreaks without actually starting a new paragraph? Is there some language where this is considered appropriate?

Or is everyone illiterate and just hitting the Return key a number of times proportional to how long they pause to think?
@ACuriousMind Like what happens on the main site when some sentences are ended with a space, some are ended with a single newline, and others are ended with multiple newlines.

The middle option is the problem.

It just abruptly ends the line and starts on the next, with no indentation or spacing between paragraphs.
