Comment on "Fokker-Planck equations for nonlinear dynamical systems driven by non-Gaussian Lévy processes" [J. Math. Phys. 53, 072701 (2012)]

In an article [J. Math. Phys. 53, 072701 (2012)] X. Sun and J. Duan presented Fokker-Planck equations for nonlinear stochastic differential equations with non-Gaussian Lévy processes. In this comment we show a serious drawback in the derivation of their main result. In the proof of Theorem 1 in the aforementioned paper, a false assumption that each infinitely differentiable function with compact support is equal to its Taylor series, is used. We prove that although the derivation is incorrect, the result remains valid only if we add certain additional assumptions.
