Abstract
Recently Ru-Yin Chen et al. (Phys. Lett. A 379 (2015) 2169-2173) presented results on the absolute negative mobility (ANM) in a one-dimensional overdamped system and claimed that a new minimal model of ANM was proposed. We suggest that the authors introduced a mistake in their calculations. Then we perform a precise numerical simulation of the corresponding Langevin equation to show that the ANM phenomenon does not occur in the considered system.
