RETRACTED ARTICLE: Notes on the result of solutions of the equilibrium equations

In this short note, we correct some expressions obtained by Wang et al. (Bound. Value Probl. 2015:230, 2015). The corrected expressions will be useful for evaluating the boundary behaviors of solutions of modified equilibrium equations with finite mass subject. Moreover, the correction of Theorem 2.1 is also given.


Introduction
The origin of our work lies in Wang et al. [1]. In [1], they investigated slow equilibrium equations with finite mass subject to a homogeneous Neumann-type boundary condition. As an application, the existence of solutions for Laplace equations with a Neumann-type boundary condition was also proved, which has recently been used to study the Cauchy problem of Laplace equation by Wang [2].
However, there exist some misprints and erroneous expressions in [1]. Firstly, we correct some misprints in Sect. 2. Then we correct erroneous expressions in Sect. 3. The corrected versions will be useful for evaluating the boundary behaviors of solutions of the equilibrium equations with finite mass subject. Finally, we correct Theorem 2.1 in Sect. 4. The present notation and terminology is the same as in [1].

Some misprints
We are indebted to the anonymous reviewer for pointing out to us that the following should also be corrected in [1].
(I) A correct version of Abstract reads as follows. The aim of this paper is to study the models of rotating stars with prescribed angular velocity. We prove that it can be formulated as a variational problem. As an application, we are also concerned with the existence of equilibrium solution.
(II) R 4 and x 4 should be written as R 3 and x 3 , respectively.

Corrected expressions
We find that [1, inequality (2.4)] is not correct and should be modified as (the sign before the function "( M 1 M ) 5/3 " should be "+") Therefore, the expressions in [1] that are derived by using [1, inequality (2.4)] need to be corrected. Specifically, [1, inequality (2.8)] should be modified as These corrections will be useful for the readers who want to use [1, Theorem 2.1] to evaluate the boundary behavior of solutions of the equilibrium equations with finite mass subject.

Corrected Theorem 2.1
A correction of Theorem 2.1 in [1] reads as follows.

A R T I C L E
Choosing R 2 > 2R 1 , we have Next, we estimate I 12 and I 23 : If we define M l = ρ l dx, then it is easy to see that M = M 1 + M 2 + M 3 . The remaining proofs are carried out in the same way as for Theorem 2.1 in [1], except that instead of the erroneous expressions (2.4) and (2.8), we have to use their corrected versions given in Sect. 2.

Conclusions
In this note, we corrected some expressions obtained by Wang et al. [1]. The corrected expressions will be useful for evaluating the boundary behavior of solutions of the equilibrium equations with finite mass subject. Moreover, the correction of Theorem 2.1 was also given.
