15. Note that the state described by Eq. (17) as a "gauge" freedom in its description, as the occupied states 1 and 2 can be rotated into each other [by a U(2) operation] without changing the physical state, and similarly the unoccupied states 3 and 4 can be rotated into each other [by another U(2) operation] without changing the state. Thus, two electrons occupying a given point X transform under U(4)/[U(2) × U(2)].

20. The ground state energy and the phase space volume of the canted phase also depend on the distance between the layers. The canted phase can exist only within a finite range of interlayer distances, comparable to the average intralayer distance between electrons.
