47. Because of the difficulty of extrapolating the converged entanglement entropy for larger systems (YC12, XC12) and the finite size effect, the topological entanglement entropy (TEE) extrapolated from our data has a deviation from the theoretical value (Equation presented). However, a near accurate TEE term is obtained for the CSL in the SU2 model [46] by keeping around 16 000 states.

51. A state from a real-variable code is always time-reversal symmetric. The time-reversal invariant state here means a state with an exponentially decaying chiral correlation instead of a long-range chiral correlation as seen in Fig. 2.
