9. From the viewpoint of the wave-packet dynamics the case of strong static field, where lSt 1, is of little interest because under these conditions the wave packet is frozen in the configuration space. This case, however, might be of interest for experimental implementation of the system because a strong static field, aligned along one of the primary axis of a square lattice, effectively reduces the lattice dimensionality [M.-C. Chung and A.R. Kolovsky, Eur. Phys. J. D 47, 421 (2008)]. EPJDF6 1434-6060 10.1140/epjd/e2008-00060-0

12. Exceptions are the cases Fx=0 or Fy=0, where a wave packet spreads ballistically in x or y directions, respectively [A.R. Kolovsky and H.-J. Korsch, Phys. Rev. A 67, 063601 (2003); PLRAAN 1050-2947 10.1103/PhysRevA.67. 063601
