Abstract

In d=4 and d=2 dimensions we calculate averages of certain products of γ matrices \((\pi (1 \pm \gamma _\mu )\rangle _L \) with respect to closed lattice paths of length L. The approach to the asymptotic behaviour for large L is considered and found to be quite different in d=4 and d=2 dimensions.
