+The lemma says that conditioned on $v$ and $w$ not being crossed, the two halves of the cycle are independent. 
 
 \begin{proof}
-    From any path $\xi\in\paths{b} \cap \mathrm{NZ}^{(j_1,j_2)}$ we can construct paths $\xi_1\in\paths{b_1}\cap \mathrm{NZ}^{(j_1,j_2)}$ and $\xi_2\in\paths{b_2}\cap\mathrm{NZ}^{(j_1,j_2)}$ as follows. Let us write the path $\xi$ as
-    $$\xi=\left( (z_1, s_1, r_1), (z_2, s_2, r_2), ..., (z_{|\xi|}, s_{|\xi|}, r_{|\xi|}) \right)$$
+    From any path $\xi\in\start{b} \cap \mathrm{NZ}^{(v,w)}$ we can construct paths $\xi_1\in\start{b_1}\cap \mathrm{NZ}^{(v,w)}$ and $\xi_2\in\start{b_2}\cap\mathrm{NZ}^{(v,w)}$ as follows. Let us write the path $\xi$ as
+    $$\xi=\left( (\text{initialize }b), (z_1, s_1, r_1), (z_2, s_2, r_2), ..., (z_{|\xi|}, s_{|\xi|}, r_{|\xi|}) \right)$$
     where $z_i\in[n]$ denotes the number of zeroes in the state before the $i$th step, $s_i\in [n]$ denotes the site that was resampled and $r_i\in \{0,1\}^3$ is the result of the three resampled bits. We have
     \begin{align*}
-        \P_b[\xi] &= \P(\text{pick }s_1) \P(r_1) \P(\text{pick }s_2) \P(r_2) \cdots \P(\text{pick }s_{|\xi|}) \P(r_{|\xi|}) \\
+        \P^{(n)}_b[\xi] &= \P(\text{pick }s_1 | z_1) \P(r_1) \P(\text{pick }s_2 | z_2) \P(r_2) \cdots \P(\text{pick }s_{|\xi|} | z_{|\xi|}) \P(r_{|\xi|}) \\
                 &= \frac{1}{z_1} \P(r_1) \frac{1}{z_2} \P(r_2) \cdots \frac{1}{z_{|\xi|}} \P(r_{|\xi|}) .
     \end{align*}
-    To construct $\xi_1$ and $\xi_2$, start with empty sequences $\xi_1,\xi_2$ and for each step $(z_i,s_i,r_i)$ in $\xi$ do the following: if $s_i$ is ``on the $b_1$ side of $j_1,j_2$'' then add $(z^{(1)}_i,s_i,r_i)$ to $\xi_1$ and if its ``on the $b_2$ side of $j_1,j_2$'' then add $(z^{(2)}_i,s_i,r_i)$ to $\xi_2$. Here $z^{(1)}_i$ is the number of zeroes that were on the $b_1$ side and $z^{(2)}_i$ is the number of zeroes on the $b_2$ side so we have $z_i = z^{(1)}_i + z^{(2)}_i$.
+    To construct $\xi_1$ and $\xi_2$, start with $\xi_1 = \left( (\text{initialize }b_1) \right)$ and $\xi_2 = \left( (\text{initialize }b_2) \right)$. For each step $(z_i,s_i,r_i)$ in $\xi$ do the following: if $s_i$ is ``on the $b_1$ side of $v,w$'' then append $(z^{(1)}_i,s_i,r_i)$ to $\xi_1$ and if its ``on the $b_2$ side of $v,w$'' then append $(z^{(2)}_i,s_i,r_i)$ to $\xi_2$. Here $z^{(1)}_i$ is the number of zeroes that were on the $b_1$ side and $z^{(2)}_i$ is the number of zeroes on the $b_2$ side so we have $z_i = z^{(1)}_i + z^{(2)}_i$.
     %Let the resulting paths be
     %\begin{align*}
     %    \xi_1 &= \left( (z^{(1)}_{a_1}, s_{a_1}, r_{a_1}), (z^{(1)}_{a_2}, s_{a_2}, r_{a_2}), ..., (z^{(1)}_{a_{|\xi_1|}}, s_{a_{|\xi_1|}}, r_{a_{|\xi_1|}}) \right) \\
     %    \xi_2 &= \left( (z^{(2)}_{b_1}, s_{b_1}, r_{b_1}), (z^{(2)}_{b_2}, s_{b_2}, r_{b_2}), ..., (z^{(2)}_{b_{|\xi_1|}}, s_{b_{|\xi_1|}}, r_{b_{|\xi_1|}}) \right)
     %\end{align*}
-    Now $\xi_1$ is a valid (terminating) path from $b_1$ to $\mathbf{1}$, because in the original path $\xi$, all zeroes ``on the $b_1$ side'' have been resampled by resamplings ``on the $b_1$ side''. Since the sites $j_1,j_2$ inbetween never become zero, there can not be any zero ``on the $b_1$ side'' that was resampled by a resampling ``on the $b_2$ side''.
-    Vice versa, any two paths $\xi_1\in\paths{b_1}\cap \mathrm{NZ}^{(j_1,j_2)}$ and $\xi_2\in\paths{b_2}\cap\mathrm{NZ}^{(j_1,j_2)}$ also induce a path $\xi\in\paths{b} \cap \mathrm{NZ}^{(j_1,j_2)}$ by simply interleaving the resampling positions. Note that $\xi_1,\xi_2$ actually induce $\binom{|\xi_1|+|\xi_2|}{|\xi_1|}$ paths $\xi$ because of the possible orderings of interleaving the resamplings in $\xi_1$ and $\xi_2$.

     For a fixed $\xi_1,\xi_2$ we will now show the following:
     \begin{align*}
-        \sum_{\substack{\xi\in\paths{b} \cap \mathrm{NZ}^{(j_1,j_2)} \text{ s.t.}\\ \xi \text{ decomposes into } \xi_1,\xi_2 }} \P_b[\xi] &=
-        \sum_{\text{interleavings of }\xi_1,\xi_2} \P(\text{interleaving}) \cdot \P_{b_1}[\xi_1] \cdot \P_{b_2}[\xi_2] \\

+        &= \P^{(n)}_{b_1}[\xi_1] \cdot \P^{(n)}_{b_2}[\xi_2]
     \end{align*}
     where both sums are over $\binom{|\xi_1|+|\xi_2|}{|\xi_1|}$ terms.
     This is best explained by an example. Lets consider the following fixed $\xi_1,\xi_2$ and an example interleaving where we choose steps from $\xi_2,\xi_1,\xi_1,\xi_2,\cdots$:
