Symmetrized reduced distribution function
Set
| context | $ \bar f_s $ … Reduced distribution function |
| definiendum | $f_s:=\frac{1}{s!}\sum_\pi \bar f_s$ |
where $\sum_\pi$ is the sum over argument-permutations, e.g.
$\sum_\pi\ g(a,b,c)\equiv g(a,b,c)+g(c,a,b)+g(b,c,a)+g(a,c,b)+g(b,a,c)+g(c,b,a)$.
Discussion
Relevant for discussions of kinetics on the intermediate level $f_1$ and $f_2$. And maybe $f_3$ if you're mad enough.
Notice that if $\bar f_s$ is already a symmetric function, $f_s=\bar f_s$.
