    There is the following serious mistake in the proof of Theorem 3 of [Invent. Math. 97, No.2, 219-235 (1989; Zbl 0647.10018)]. The estimate of Lemma 3.1 is applicable only when \(X^{1/(2n-2)}\gg p\). Hence if \(p\geq X^{1/(2n-2)}\), the estimate (5.19) on p. 234 does not follow from Lemma 3.1. The author could not recover the proof of it. Consequently, Theorems 3 and 4 are not proved.
