14. The cited value for δ0 is inconsistent with an earlier one, 0.19±0.03 (Table 1), which would appear to give a much better fit, 1/π δ0 =1.68±0.3 (Ref.). However, error bars on the earlier estimate are somewhat unclear, because it was obtained with a value Wc =5.74 that is considerably below more recent findings (Ref.), Wc =5.84±0.007. In fact, later results by Schweitzer and Zharakeshev for larger system sizes together with accounting for irrelevant scaling terms are compatible with Wc from Ref.. [L. Schweitzer and I. Zharakeshev (unpublished)].

17. We employ a standard procedure [Ref.; I. K. Zharekeshev and B. Kramer, Jpn. J. Appl. Phys., Part 1 JAPNDE 0021-4922 10.1143/JJAP.34.4361 34, 4361 (1995)] and consider the scaling of the second moment of the normalized level spacing distribution J (L,W) = (1/2) ∫0∞ ds s2 PL,W (s), where PL,W (s) denotes the probability to find an energy difference s between two consecutive eigenvalues. Our renormalization group ansatz incorporating irrelevant scaling fields is J (L,W) = J R ( L1/ν) +χ L-y J I ( L1/ν) + with (W) = W- Wc /Wc [χ (W)] being the relevant (irrelevant) variables. Results of the scaling analysis are Wc =5.85±0.025, ν=2.74±0. 12, and y=1.5±0.5. The large error of the exponents result from the uncertainty in Wc.

24. In recent papers [H. Obuse and K. Yakubo, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 0163-1829 10.1103/PhysRevB.69.125301 69, 125301 (2004);

B PRBMDO 0163-1829 10.1103/PhysRevB.71.035102 71, 035102 (2005)] the width σ (L) of the distribution function P (τ2) of τ2 for different system sizes is investigated. A nonzero value in the limit of large system sizes is found, if an approximation scheme is used that assumes power law corrections to scaling, L- y. However, in reality finite size corrections to σ (L) are logarithmic rather than power law.
26. Indeed, the published data [Obuse and Yakubo, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 0163-1829 10.1103/PhysRevB.69.125301 69, 125301 (2004), Fig. 6] are consistent with a slow, logarithmic flow of σ (L) to zero in agreement with the self-averaging nature of the multifractal exponents τq and in contrast to earlier claims made in the literature
