37. Throughout this paper, and for the sake of simplicity, we often name as positive maps those maps that are positive but not completely positive.

59. For a general unitary symplectic invariant operator AΓ AJ, although it can happen [see Eq. 62].
60. Note that P+ P+J =0= P+J P+, since Φ+ (1J) Φ+ =0, which implies [P+, P+J] =0. Also [P+J, FJ] = [P+, F]J =0, because F Φ+ = Φ+. Finally, [F, FJ] ik = Ji,Jk - Ji,Jk =0 for any basis vector ik.

64. Observe that (P+ A A′ FB B′) T A′ B′ = (dB / dA) FA A′ P+ B B′ and analogously (P+ A A′ 1B B′) T A′ B′ = (1/ dA) FA A′ 1B B′, and (1A A′ FB B′) T A′ B′ = dB 1A A′ P+ B B′.
