31. In this case the Hamiltonian can be written introducing S U (4) -rather than S U (2) -gauge fields.

34. A similar approach in a somewhat different context was pursued in R. Shindou and L. Balents, Phys. Rev. B 77, 035110 (2008). 10.1103/PhysRevB.77. 035110

41. Since the gauge-transformation properties do not depend on the choice of Γ, Γ ⊃′, we pick the simplest curve.
42. 2 are those that produce spin-charge coupling-and thus lead to, say, the spin Hall effect or the anomalous Hall effect.

56. Notice that the above does not agree with the results found in Ref., though the discrepancy is no surprise: in Ref. a different model of disorder was used, one in which the dependence of the scattering amplitude on the modulus of the momentum was neglected.
