I want to demonstrate that calculating the squared amplitude of the process quark antiquark in lepton antilepton where I consider the non-zero masses of the fermions, is equivalent to considering the zero masses but with infinite insertions of the vev. I am trying to do it, but the pieces I find that diverge do not have opposite signs. Could you help me?

Might help if you show what you have so far. Also if you square the negative frequency amplitude what result do you get (positive or negative) ?
Then ask yourself the question on a probability amplitude such as provided by the Schrödinger equations
" is a negative probability valid ? "
