title: Comment on "Analyses of bifurcation of reaction pathways on a global reaction route map: A case study of gold cluster Au5" [J. Chem. Phys. 143, 014301 (2015)].
abstract: We demonstrate by an example that the search for valley-ridge transition (VRT) points used in the commented paper does not always indicate a bifurcation of a reaction path. This was claimed.
