18. The antiferromagnetism discussed here is a nearest neighbor antiferromagnetism related to superexchange. Reports following the submission of this Letter indicate that at zero doping there is a spin density wave instability at zero doping, likely at the M point, which provides an actual antiferromagnetic ground state;
