Abstract

In this note, two comments are pointed out to the paper (Wu and Baleanu in Nonlinear Dyn 75:283–287, 2014). It is confirmed that the equation of fractional logistic map proposed by Wu and Baleanu cannot be called the “fractional logistic map,” because the map does not converge to the classical logistic map in one dimension, and the analysis of bifurcation diagrams also exist problem. So, the revised equation and the correct bifurcation diagrams are presented in this note. Due to the high impact of the Wu and Baleanu’s paper, we believe that these comments will be helpful for the fractional community in the further research.
