48. As we only use e2 to establish a validity condition for our theory we dispense with any additional quantum numbers to label the second excited band. Generally we take e2 to be the lowest energy at which a second excited band state becomes accessible.
49. From comparisons with full numerical results we have determined that spline interpolating the localized density of states at the top of the first excited band up to the bare density of states at energy Ebare provides quite a good description. However, we do not use this here.
50. Since ELE - e0 > ELE - w0, it also holds that (ELE - w0) k Tc0.
