I think the line 13 in the algorithm 8.1 miss the "*" operator.

σ = M.σ(M.k)

Good question. The field σ is actually a function that takes as input the step number so that it can decease in size over time. For example, it can be 1/k as mentioned under eq. (8.1). We can add an example of this in the next edition.
