In the article by S. Z. Roginskii and Yu. L. Khait, “On the question of the origin of the compensation effect in chemical kinetics,” published in DAN, vol. 130, no. 2, 1960, the second inequality (2) on p. 367 should read

$$ \frac{l^3}{d^3} > \frac{E}{kTd}. $$

In my article (K. S. Krasnov, “Calculation of the energies of molecules of alkali-earth metal halides on the basis of the ionic model”), published in DAN, vol. 128, no. 2, 1959, in formulas (2) and (5) the coefficient of the polarizability was erroneously given as 4 instead of 3 (more precisely, \(3^{11/16}\)). This does not change the essence of the conclusions, but it increases the average error.

In my article (Yu. L. Levin, “On affine connections associated with a skew-symmetric tensor”), published in DAN, vol. 128, no. 4, 1959, a theorem was used (L. P. Eisenhart, Non-Riemannian Geometry, 1927, p. 22) which turned out to be erroneous. In view of this, the 1st and 3rd paragraphs in § 5 and Theorem 6 in § 6 are incorrect. The error was pointed out by P. K. Rashevskii.
