28. This result should be contrasted to the infinite system size result of Eq. (12) in Ref. [9] which also gives logarithmic dependence on N, but becomes negative with increasing N, which is unphysical.
29. One can also write a general finite-size scaling form for S(k,t) following Ref. [2] to include the L dependence of D. This leads to x = 2 in the present case, as proved by the collapse of all data in Fig. 1.
