38. Given the fact that the computational cost for dealing with permanents grows exponentially with the number of lattice sites, an optimization procedure on the 8 × 8 cluster is not affordable. Moreover, an accurate estimation of the gap would require an accuracy on the energy that is not presently reachable.
39. As a result of the two-sublattice structure of the mean-field ansatz, k = (0, 0) is equivalent to k = (π, π).
