17. In present work we restrict ourselves by the case when network of the vortex lines consist of only the closed loops. We do not consider the very long lines stretching from wall to wall (see, however, Sec. 4). Thus, we deal with the so-called "uniform" superfluid turbulence. We also do not consider the turbulence in the rotating containers.

30. We omit the rare events when two loops cross each other in two (or more) different points at the same time, or the single loop undergoes two (or more) simultaneous self-intersection. These processes may be important only for the very dense tangle, but the estimations for the vortex line density require information about details (e.g., duration) of the reconnection process.
