Abstract

We discuss the recent claim [G. Mishima, arXiv:1311.7109; M. Fael and M. Passera, arXiv:1402.1575 [Phys. Rev. D (to be published)]] about discovery of a nonperturbative quantum-electrodynamic contribution of order (α/π)5 to lepton anomalous magnetic moments. We explain why this nonperturbative correction does not exist.
