61. Note, however, that the ground-state distribution for the GOE has a typical width (Formula presented) so that the distributions of the two yrasts strongly overlap: C. A. Tracy and H. Widom, Commun. Math. Phys. 87, 449 (1983).

66. Note that also in absence of fluctuations it is easier to magnetize an even number than an odd number of fermions as the doubling of the spin gap at (Formula presented) from (Formula presented) to (Formula presented) is only partially compensated by a 1.5-fold increase of the gain in exchange energy.

70. We use (Formula presented) indifferently for both even and odd n even though in the latter case one should write (Formula presented).
71. This is already the case in the perturbative regime where this width is essentially determined by first-order corrections. However, the dependence in n and m is different.
72. These results should be considered as a limit (Formula presented) as fluctuations are destroyed in a clean system.

74. This is not exactly true as the infinite-ranged interaction destroys both fluctuations and exchange exactly. This result should be considered as a limit (Formula presented) (Formula presented).

76. There is, however, a non-negligible coupling between the transverse component of the electronic wave function and the magnetic field: F. Stern, Phys. Rev. Lett. 21, 1687 (1968). This coupling causes a large, common energy shift of all the conductance peaks and experimentally one commonly subtracts it by considering the spacings between neighboring peaks (Formula presented) (Ref. 49). We are indebted to D. Goldhaber-Gordon for pointing this out to us.
