24. The model is also considered as a spin chain with first neighbor couplings K1, K2 and J2, and second neighbor coupling J1.

26. One among L1, L2 and L is a dummy variable. It is absorbed by the others, and only two variables remain, as seen in Eq. 12. Hence, the number of the original degrees of freedom is conserved.

33. For the equivalence, S1 (1) and S1 (2) are symmetrized in a wave function.
34. The wave function 21 for a three-spin unit is expressed as | | 0,0 = (| S1 (1) T | S1 (2) S2 + | S1 (2) T | S1 (1) S2 ) /2, where | S S′ means the valence bond state between S (= S1 (1) or S1 (2)) and S′ (= S2 or T). This is part of VBS I in Fig. 7.
