84. As discussed in the paragraphs following Eq. in Sec., a magnetic impurity will typically induce a scalar potential V (r) deformation, in addition to mass and vector potential point exchanges for out-of-plane and in-plane polarization components, respectively.

91. L transform with different U (1) charges under spatial rotations in the x y plane and cannot mix.
92. For composite LDOS fluctuations, it is necessary to restrict the eigenspace of Eq. to rotationally invariant (J z = 0), "parity"- invariant states. Here, parity denotes simultaneous invariance under spatial x and y reflections in the plane of the system. In the chiral decomposition of Eq., parity-invariant operators are symmetric under the exchange R L, R ̄ L ̄.
