Iterated rings of bounded elements: Erratum

We close a gap appearing at the same time in the author’s thesis “Iterated rings of bounded elements and generalizations of Schm"udgen’s theorem” [1] and in the author’s article “Iterated rings of bounded elements and generalizations of Schm"udgen’s Positivstellensatz” [2].
