29. We note that the angular fluctuations include both connected components of the target manifold associated with the class D modes [20].
30. It is interesting to note that the present scheme can be accommodated in a replica theory. Here one can identify a family of instanton configurations parametrized by rotations in the replica space [24].

32. When the droplet size becomes in excess of the system size, one enters the zero dimensional limit. In this case the "bounce configuration" is identified with a homogeneous saddle point of the potential V(θ̂). We note that the corresponding expression for the DOS (6) is in accord with the universal result obtained by Vavilov et al., cond-mat/0006375 for an SN system, and contradicts the findings of Ref. [8].
