Abstract

Very recently Willis [Phys. Rev. E 69, 056612 (2004)] have used a collective variable theory to explain the appearance of a nonzero energy current in an ac-driven, damped sine-Gordon equation. In this Comment, we prove rigorously that the time-averaged energy current in an ac-driven nonlinear Klein-Gordon system is strictly zero.
