Correction to: Fairness criteria for allocating scarce resources Bismark Singh1 © Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2020

Correction to: Optimization Letters (2020) 14:1533–1541 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11590-020-01568-1 The Acknowledgements section in the original publication of the article is now revised to the following. Acknowledgements Open Access funding provided by Projekt DEAL. As suggested in Section 3, this work began with quadratic loss functions in the context of a resource allocation problem in vaccine allocation. Proportionally fair results for the special case of the quadratic loss appeared in the dissertation of Hsin-Chan (Neo) Huang [1] and in my dissertation [3], and were subsequently published by us in Huang et al. [2]. I sincerely thank Neo and David Morton for many helpful discussions that led to furthering that work, i.e., that led to the current paper. I further thank David for discussions on structuring this article. I also thank an anonymous reviewer for correcting an error in an earlier version of a proof. Anything overlooked in the manuscript is, of course, my responsibility.
