16. "Canonical" in this context does not necessarily refer to the set of SCF canonical orbitals in the basis of which the spin-orbital Fock matrix is diagonal, but simply refers to the set of orbitals necessary for some specific partitioning of the Hamiltonian.

26. The exception to this statement is the OPT2 method of Murray and Davidson (Ref. 21), which has been shown (Ref. 25) to be non-invariant with respect to rotations among degenerate singly-occupied orbitals. The IOPT method (Ref. 23) was designed to overcome this problem. This is discussed in the text.

30. This is not true of the OPT2 method, which includes certain two-electron terms in the zeroth-order Hamiltonian. This is discussed in the text.

32. While the energies are spin projected - the spin free Hamiltonian cannot couple states of different spin - third- and higher-order energies will not be the same as those determined using perturbed wave functions which are spin eigenfunctions.
