Comments on "Gauge Theory of Composite Fermions:Particle-Flux Separation in Quantum Hall Systems" by I. Ichinose and Tetsuo Matsui, cond-mat/0210142 v2, 7 Feb. 2003

We find that the work of Ichinose requires far too many quasiparticles. As a result too many parameters are introduced to fit the mass of a composite fermion (CF) and hence experimentally, it will not be possible to identify all of such quasiparticles and their masses. Further, according to Ichinose, an electron decay should occur but it has not been found. It is much too unrealistic to expect an electron decay similar to the neutron decay. If the CF is really found it is not going to be relevent to the quantum Hall effect. Therefore, the composite fermion (CF) model of quantum Hall effect is not well founded and should be discarded.
