51. Note that the necessity to name the approximations is caused by subsequent convenience of their citation. But the choice of the names is arbitrary and ambiguous. It is much affected by tradition. For example, the spherical model approximation for the SRO parameters is not the spherical model itself (see Sec. 3 in Ref. 36).

63. Of course, in such a case, one can also use the ground states. However, it should be emphasized that the set of the ground states corresponding to zero temperature is helpful but cannot generally describe all the superstructures appearing at high temperatures (e.g., Sec. 5.3 in Ref. 14). Besides, the determination of the ground states is a complicated problem (e.g., Chap. 3 in Ref. 14 and Sec. 7 in Ref. 5).
64. As it was done in the approximate mean-field Landau-Lifshitz theory of second-order phase transitions (see, e.g., Sec. 145 in Ref. 31 and Sec. 4.4.2 in Ref. 14).
