32. We note that the spin-nematic mechanism transforms the system to a pseudoproper ferroelastic rather than a proper one, for which we find a behavior analogous to that recently discussed by Cano and Levanyuk [A. Cano and A. P. Levanyuk, Phys. Rev. B PRBMDO 1098-0121 10.1103/PhysRevB.81.172105 81, 172105 (2010)] for pseudoproper ferroelectrics.

34. The periodicity of the solution and its degeneracy with respect to its absolute phase are due to the initial translational symmetry of the system in the x y plane.
