Homework Statement
I need to calculate [itex]<\phi(x_1)\phi(x_2)\phi(x_3)>[/itex] and [itex]<\phi(x_1)\phi(x_2)\phi(x_3)>_{c}[/itex] and then draw Feynman diagrams when [itex]\mathscr{L} = -\left(\left(\partial_{\mu}\phi\right)^{2} + m^{2}\phi^{2}\right) - g\phi^{3}[/itex] through first order in [itex]g[/itex].
Homework Equations
[itex]<\phi(x_1)\phi(x_2)\phi(x_3)> = \frac{\delta}{\delta J(x_1)}\frac{\delta}{\delta J(x_2)}\frac{\delta}{\delta J(x_3)}Z[J]|_{J=0}[/itex]
[itex]<\phi(x_1)\phi(x_2)\phi(x_3)>_{c} = \frac{\delta}{\delta J(x_1)}\frac{\delta}{\delta J(x_2)}\frac{\delta}{\delta J(x_3)}\ln{(Z[J])}|_{J=0}[/itex]
The Attempt at a Solution
I find terms of the form [itex]<\phi(x_1)><\phi(x_2)\phi(x_3)>[/itex] and I'm not sure how to multiply the correlation functions. Any hints on how to do that? Thanks.
I should perhaps say that I know how the diagrams look for [itex]<\phi(x_1)>[/itex] and [itex]<\phi(x_2)\phi(x_3)>[/itex] individually but don't know how to multiply them (or what it means to do that).
ANSWER: You put them together (in one diagram) of course! How silly of me D:
