: Note that when k = 2n in [Eq. 1], everything in the numerator and denominator is divisible by 4 because the only instances of k have it raised to a power of 2 or greater meaning there will be a factor of (2n)<sup>2</sup> = 4n<sup>2</sup>, therefore Sk/S(k+2) is superparticular when k is even.

: Therefore we can replace their occurrences in [Eq. 1] with 4m+1 and 4a+1 respectively, without having to worry about what m and a are (as we only need to know that m and a are positive integers). Therefore to show S(4n+1)/S(4n+3) is superparticular, we set k=4n+1 in [Eq. 1] and then do the replacements and simplify to a superparticular:
