EE1 erroneously has e1 as the lower note of the 1st quaver. The obvious mistake was corrected in EE2.

There is no  before the 3rd third in A (→GE→FE→EE1→EE2). Chopin's oversight is proved by a present both in the cello part in Morch and analogous bar 5. The sign was added in EE3, probably on the basis of the indicated analogy.

According to us, the  indication is to be interpreted as valid already from the beginning of the bar. It is one of examples of the manner of introducing indications within the scope of their validity, used sometimes by Chopin, particularly in his earlier works. In GE (→FE→EE)  was most probably linked with the entrance of the L.H.

b. 329

composition: Op. 21, Concerto in F minor, Mvt III

No sign in A (→GE)

 in FE (→EE)
..

The  sign may be a mistake of the engraver of FE (→EE). However, Chopin's proofreading cannot be entirely excluded: it may be that the composer wanted to prevent the next fragment from being performed without pedal or, which is more likely, he was thinking about a short pedal encompassing the octave leap of the top voice in the R.H.
