18. Where we give expressions for discrete groups, the corresponding analysis for compact Lie groups is obtained by replacing summations with appropriate integrals, etc.
19. It is interesting to note that Aberg has recently introduced a measure of the degree of superposition which has the same form as our asymmetry measure AG (ρ).
