11. As stated previously, the associated Hamiltonian need not be the Hamiltonian of the system but one which has the same ground state.
12. We refer to continuous wave functions of this sort as bands which do not touch in momentum space.
13. We can always choose the paths such that the diabolical points do not map onto themselves under time reversal.

17. This follows from the definition of the Z2 invariant in Eq. 8.
18. An analysis through K theory seems to suggest that the fourth Z2 invariant or the monopole charge described above arises from the twisted KR theory of S3 while the remaining three arise from the faces of T3 (Ref.).
