35. Although this equivalence is strict only in the α → 1 limit, it holds with corrections for 1 > α as well.
36. Similar ideas were put forward in Ref. [6], for hierarchical structures which are reducible by series and parallel transformations.

38. This results from the fact that the distribution of n decays exponentially fast for large n. See Fig. 2 and Ref. [31].
