Abstract

We reply to the criticism from the authors of arXiv:1502.02782 of the spin-fluctuation scenario for charge order in the cuprates. The authors of of arXiv:1502.02782 argued that spin-fluctuation exchange cannot give rise to charge order with observed momentum (Q,0)/(0,Q)(Q, 0)/(0, Q) due to the absence of nesting for a half of fermions involved. We explicitly show the instability towards charge order exists even in the "worst-case" scenario of anti-nesting for a half of fermions.
