In graphene, where the electron-electron scattering is dominant, electrons collectively act as a fluid. This hydrodynamic behaviour of charge carriers leads to exciting nonlinear phenomena such as solitary waves and shocks, among others. In…
Recently, Biswas and Milovic [Appl. Math. Comput. 208 (2009) 209-302] have found optical one-soliton solutions of a fourth order dispersive cubic-quintic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. In this comment, we first show there are mistakes in…
