Notes

  1. 1.

    If the cylindrification of X is given by \(X\times M\), then [i](X) is a right cylinder subset of \(M\times M\). If the cylindrification of X is \(X\times G\), then [i](X) is a right cylinder subset of \(M\times G\). Similar considerations apply to [e](X).

  2. 2.

    Our argument proves that the dual of \(\underline{C_1}(X)\) is not the operator \(X^*\) introduced in [1], in an elementary but analytic way without using counterexamples.
