Inverting the coupling of the signed Gausssian free field with a loop soup

Lupu introduced a coupling between a random walk loop-soup and a Gaussian free field, where the sign of the field is constant on each cluster of loops. This coupling is a signed version of isomorphism theorems relating the square of the GFF to the occupation field of Markovian trajectories. His construction starts with a loop-soup, and by adding additional randomness samples a GFF out of it. In this article we provide the inverse construction: starting from a signed free field and using a self-interacting random walk related to this field, we construct a random walk loop-soup. Our construction relies on the previous work by Sabot and Tarrès, which inverts the coupling from the square of the GFF rather than the signed GFF itself. As a consequence, we also deduce an inversion of the coupling between the random current and the FK-Ising random cluster models introduced by Lupu and Werner.
