2.10.8. There are 12 terms, 6 terms with positive signs, and six terms with negative signs.
These terms cancel pairwise.
2.11.1. Ther are n(n-1)/2 conditions corresponding to the off-diagaonal matrix elements of I
above the main diagonal, and n conditions from the diagonal matrix elements. The conditions
from the off-diagonal matrix elements of I below the main diagonal are the same as those
above the main diagonal for the orthogonality relations.
2.11.2. Conditions corresponding to off-diagonal matrix elements of I above and below the main
diagonal are independent of each other for the unitarity relations.

Note on Bromwich integrals: The trouble with many Bromwich integrals is that after
simplification, one still has a difficult integral to evaluate. I think it is acceptable if the last
integral is found by looking up a table of integrals, or equivalently by using a computer software
such as Mathematica.
