40. Since we always have the option of expanding with respect to the anticommuting parameters that may be contained in X, no information is lost by not considering the full left ℋ module of superderivations of ℋ; cf. the last paragraph of Sec. II B.

45. For lack of a better word we borrow the terminology from manifolds. Of course what is meant here is the supermanifold of solutions in Gl(W) of the nonlinear equations g = γ̂(g)= τ̂(g).

47. Since the orthogonal group here always appears with an even dimension, we use the simplified notation D|C, instead of BD|C as in Table II.
