An elementary gap in the proof of corollary 2.2 was found, the claim in the first version of the paper is thus retracted.

Some unfortunate errors from our paper math/0505591 are corrected.

We point out two errors in the paper ``The integer cohomology algebra of toric arrangements'', Adv. Math., Vol. 313, pp. 746-802, 2017. The main error concerns Theorem 4.2.17. In that theorem's proof, Diagram (8) does not commute in general…

It is a book on geodesy and the theory of errors for the students of the cycle of geomatics, surveying and mapping. The geometric and spatial aspects of geodesy are presented in the first part of the book. The second part is about the…

I have noted a number of errors, most of them quite minor, in the {\em Encyclopedia of Cosmology} (New York and London: Garland), 1993, Norriss S. Hetherington, ed. The majority occur in my mathematically verbose article, ``Fundamental…

This is a list of corrections for the book: J. Noguchi and T. Ochiai, Geometric Function Theory in Several Complex Variables, xi + 282 pp., Math.\ Monographs Vol.\ {\bf 80}, Amer.\ Math.\ Soc., Providence, 1990. The authors hope that this…

There is an error in the proof (but not the truth) of Theorem 3.2 in the author's 1985 paper "The Double-Wedge Algebra for Quantum Fields on Schwarzschild and Minkowski Spacetimes" in "Communications in Mathematical Physics". The author…

In this note we correct two errors in our paper "On the Homology of Completion and Torsion", arXiv:1010.4386, that appeared in Algebras and Representation Theory (2014).

This is a survey article, based on the author's lectures in the 2015 Current developments in Mathematics meeting; published in "Current developments in Mathematics". Version 2, references corrected and added.

This note corrects a minor misstatement in section 2 of the paper in the title (arXiv:0808.3426). It also addresses some related issues. The error does not affect the main results of that paper, but nevertheless this corrigendum seems…

This article corrects two mistakes in the article "Coarse homology theories" [math.AT/0106183].

This is a list of the typographic and other errors that occur in `Automorphisms of first-order structures', by R. W. Kaye and H. D. Macpherson (eds), Oxford University Press, 1994.

In this note, we argue that there is a bug in [Tirole, J., "Hierarchies and bureaucracies: On the role of collusion in organizations," {\em Journal of Law, Economics and Organization}, vol.2, 181-214, 1986].

We point out a mistake in the statement of Corollary 2 in R. C. Alperin's paper on Selberg's lemma.

We describe various errors in the mathematical literature, and consider how some of them might have been avoided, or at least detected at an earlier stage, using tools such as Maple or Sage. Our examples are drawn from three broad…

This paper is a set of notes that we wrote concerning the first version of Emergent Gravity [gr-qc/0602022]. It is our version of an exercise that we proposed to some of our students. The idea was to find mathematical errors and…

We review (non-abelian) extensions of a given Lie algebra, identify a 3-dimensional cohomological obstruction to the existence of extensions. A striking analogy to the setting of covariant exterior derivatives, curvature, and the Bianchi…

The original version of this paper contains an error; when this is corrected the basic conclusion changes. A revised manuscript will be submitted shortly.

We collect together various facts about G_2 and Spin(7) geometry which are likely well known but which do not seem to have appeared explicitly in the literature before. These notes should be useful to graduate students and new researchers…

Boris Shoikhet noticed that the proof of lemma 1 in section 2.3 of math.QA/0504420 contains an error. In this note I give a correct proof of this lemma which was suggested to me by Dmitry Tamarkin. The correction does not change the results…
