[step:Transfer amplitudes by change of variables and stationary phase]Let
\begin{align*}
J_F:U\times\widetilde{\Theta}_\psi\to (0,\infty)
\end{align*}
denote the absolute value of the Jacobian determinant of the fibre map $F_x$ with respect to [Lebesgue measure](/page/Lebesgue%20Measure) in the fibre variables. For a representative $a\in S^\mu_{\mathrm{cl}}(U\times\Theta_\phi)$, choose $\gamma_\phi\in C_c^\infty(\mathbb{R}^{q_\phi})$ equal to $1$ near $0$. For each $\alpha\in\mathbb{R}$, let $S^\alpha_{\mathrm{cl}}(U\times\widetilde{\Theta}_\phi)$ denote the properly supported classical symbols on the conic set $\widetilde{\Theta}_\phi$, classical with respect to the joint dilation $(\theta,z_\phi)\mapsto(t\theta,tz_\phi)$. The stationary-phase expansion in the auxiliary variable defines an elliptic classical operator
\begin{align*}
\mathcal{S}_\phi:S^\alpha_{\mathrm{cl}}(U\times\widetilde{\Theta}_\phi)/S^{-\infty}\to S^{\alpha+q_\phi/2}_{\mathrm{cl}}(U\times\Theta_\phi)/S^{-\infty}
\end{align*}
by requiring
\begin{align*}
(2\pi)^{-r/2}\int e^{i\widetilde{\phi}(x,\theta,z_\phi)}c(x,\theta,z_\phi)\,d\mathcal{L}^{q_\phi}(z_\phi)d\mathcal{L}^{N_\phi}(\theta)
\end{align*}
to equal $I_\phi(\mathcal{S}_\phi c)$ modulo smooth half-densities. Its leading coefficient is multiplication by $m(Q_\phi,\rho_\phi)$, which is elliptic. The full stationary-phase expansion is triangular in homogeneous degree, preserves proper support over $U$ because all fibre cutoffs are chosen over compact subsets of the base projection, and is independent of the auxiliary cutoff modulo $S^{-\infty}$. Hence the usual recursive stationary-phase construction gives a unique inverse on symbol quotients. Choose $a_\mathrm{st}\in S^{\mu-q_\phi/2}_{\mathrm{cl}}(U\times\widetilde{\Theta}_\phi)$ supported where $\gamma_\phi(z_\phi/\rho_\phi(\theta))=1$ near $z_\phi=0$ and satisfying $\mathcal{S}_\phi[a_\mathrm{st}]=[a]$. Then the stabilized oscillatory integral with amplitude $a_\mathrm{st}$ represents $I_\phi(a)$ modulo $C^\infty(U;\Omega_U^{1/2})$. Define the transferred stabilized amplitude
\begin{align*}
\widetilde{b}:U\times\widetilde{\Theta}_\psi\to\mathbb{C},\qquad (x,\zeta)\mapsto a_\mathrm{st}(F(x,\zeta))J_F(x,\zeta).
\end{align*}
On the localized conic neighbourhoods, $F_x$ is a diffeomorphism from the chosen fibre domain in $\widetilde{\Theta}_\psi$ onto the chosen fibre domain in $\widetilde{\Theta}_\phi$. Under the substitution $\omega=F_x(\zeta)$, the change-of-variables formula for Lebesgue measure in the fibre variables gives
\begin{align*}
(2\pi)^{-r/2}\int e^{i\widetilde{\phi}(x,\omega)}a_\mathrm{st}(x,\omega)\,d\mathcal{L}^r(\omega)=(2\pi)^{-r/2}\int e^{i\widetilde{\psi}(x,\zeta)}\widetilde{b}(x,\zeta)\,d\mathcal{L}^r(\zeta)
\end{align*}
modulo a smooth half-density. The equality is used only where the cutoffs place the amplitudes inside these domains, and the complementary terms are smoothing by nonstationary phase.
If $q_\psi>0$, apply stationary phase in the auxiliary variable $z_\psi\in\mathbb{R}^{q_\psi}$ to $\widetilde{b}$. This produces a classical symbol
\begin{align*}
b:U\times\Theta_\psi\to\mathbb{C}
\end{align*}
of order
\begin{align*}
\mu+\frac{N_\phi-N_\psi}{2}
\end{align*}
such that
\begin{align*}
I_\phi(a)-I_\psi(b)\in C^\infty(U;\Omega_U^{1/2}).
\end{align*}
If $q_\psi=0$, this same definition is read without the final stationary phase step. Set
\begin{align*}
T_{\phi\to\psi}[a]:=[b].
\end{align*}
The construction depends only on the class of $a$ modulo $S^{-\infty}$. Indeed, a smoothing change in $a$ remains smoothing after composition with the smooth conic diffeomorphism $F$ and after stationary phase. Proper support over $U$ is preserved because each operation is performed after shrinking to properly supported conic neighbourhoods over the same base coordinate set and because $F$ is fibre-preserving. Hence $T_{\phi\to\psi}$ is a well-defined [linear map](/page/Linear%20Map) on symbol quotient spaces.[/step]
