Abstract
In the article "Stochastic comparisons of parallel systems when component have proportional hazard rates" we found a gap in the middle of the proof of Theorem 3.2. Therefore, we do not know whether Theorem 3.2 is true for the reverse hazard rate order. However, we could prove the following weaker result for the stochastic order.
