23. In the derivation of the Coulomb gas Hamiltonian the cosine action should be expanded around the global minimum [see S. Kim and M.Y. Choi, Phys. Rev. B 48, 322 (1993)]. In the FFXY model, however, the expansions around the two ground states simply rescale the temperature with the same factor. Consequently, the results of Refs. 12 and 13 do not change qualitatively, still giving evidence for two separate transitions.
