80. The matrix elements (11) and (12) could also have been obtained using the helical symmetry states |κm〉, which has the advantage of making the g factor an explicitly periodic function of reciprocal lattice vectors, whereas using the translational unit cell this periodicity has to be imposed by hand (Ref. 80). The states are given explicitly in Refs. 71 and 72.
