    • If m+n > l, for example, then consistency in representing the zero angle state by a constant cm requires that, if this state is an eigenvalue of φ hat, the state labeled | m + n rangle must be one of the eigenstates of L hatz. We see in Sec. IV that it is indeed just the state | m +n-2l-1 rangle.
