b. 110

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

..

GC and FE1 (→FE2→FE3) do not have the naturals raising G1-G to G1-G. The patent mistake was corrected in EE, GE and FE4.

b. 112-114

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

..

In GC the second quaver in the R.H. is written too low in all of these bars, so it could be interpreted as an F or F. The respective notes in the L.H. allow to guess the correct text, although in bar 113, the note in the L.H. is also written incorrectly as an A1. The remaining sources – including GE, based on GC – feature the correct text.

b. 115

composition: Op. 35, Sonata in B♭ minor, Mvt I

..

Similarly as in bar 107, in GC, FE1 (→FE2→FE3,EE1) there is no  raising b to b. The sign was added in GE, FE4 and EE2.
