quantum field theory - reference for wick product

The following article by E. R. Negrin provides the required formula for the antisymmetric Fock space
in the corollary on page 3644.



I want to point out that the Wick products (for the antisymmetric Fock space) can be constructed from a Gaussian generating function
which is Gaussian in (real) Grassmann variables, which is given for the case presented in the question by:



G(mathbfxi)=exp((Sigma2ki=0xiifi,Sigma2kj=0xijfj))



where (,) denotes the Hilbert sapce HmathbbC inner product.



The required Wick product is obtained as the coefficient of xi1xi2...xi2k.
