“…Moreover, we may drop the condition that endpoints do not coincide (as is the case in Theorem 1): Remember that we are dealing with ordered pairs of paths, i.e., every pair ( p, q) of paths p, q, where both paths start at the origin and end in the same point P (and where p{q), is considered different from the``reversed'' pair (q, p). Here, the common endpoint counts as point of intersection (contrary to the definition in [1,2]; pointed out by Sulanke [6]): Corollary 1. Let 0 t v and u w 0; let P=(t, u), Q=(v, w) be two points in the integer lattice Z_Z (P=Q is possible).…”
