  13. As noticed in Turchi P.E.A., Kudrnovsky J., Drchal V. and Turek I., J. Phys. Cond. Mat. 8, 7883 (1996) Ref. [15], it exists a special value of r at which the charge transfers are zero for all the alloying species. This is not in contrast with the existence of linear laws: for the above value of r, the range qminqiqmax collapses in a single point [11]. Also in this case qV linear relationships hold with finite values for aa A and a B and with k A=kB=0 as it can be established by following the methods illustrated in section 3.
