26. Strictly speaking, the fluctuations behavior of fluid membranes defers from that of random surfaces even on macroscopical length scales. Therefore, the validity of Eq. 20 cannot be rigorously justified. The good agreement of the results [Eq. 27] with the computer simulations gives credibility to this approximation. The Gaussian form becomes exact if the membrane is subjected to a strong pinning potential of localized harmonic springs, see L. C.-L. Lin and F. L. H. Brown, Biophys. J. 86, 764 (2004).
