33. An effective Hamiltonian, similar to the one of Ref. 29, has been derived for all generic half-integer spins S on the trimerized kagome lattice [ M. Mambrini (private communication)] and for spins 1/2 on the pyrochlore slab [F. Mila (unpublished)].

35. A similar effective Hamiltonian, but containing the chirality variables only, has been derived in the context of the Heisenberg model on the pyrochlore lattice, see H. Tsunetsugu, Phys. Rev. B 65, 024415 (2001).
