Proof of Scores on the Configuration Space: the Score of a Tensor Power is the Product Field of the Score, and the Score of the One-Particle Marginal is the Projection of the Score
lemmalem:score-tensor-marginal-wasserstein-2026aSumming a test function over the particles gives a function with bounded derivatives whose gradient is the product field of its gradient, so the score identity yields the marginal claim through the projection; for tensor powers the product field of the score is tangent by approximation, and it integrates by parts against every test function by writing the tensor power as the image of its product with one more copy and applying Fubini particle by particle.

Every index in is for exactly one pair (Block Indices: Enumerating an Initial Segment of Length qN by Blocks and Positions §bijection); so, with a common bound of the finitely many bounded functions and (for instance the sum of bounds for each, by claim 6 of Properties of Finite Sums), all first and second partial derivatives of are bounded by . The coordinate of with index is , the th coordinate of , which is the coordinate with index of (Particle Blocks of the Configuration Space: Block Maps, Configurations, Product Maps and Diagonal Points §product-map, Particle Blocks of the Configuration Space: Block Maps, Configurations, Product Maps and Diagonal Points §configuration); thus as maps.
