Abstract
In this Comment, we show that the paper by Li et al., published in Phys. Rev. B 79, 054514 (2009), contains an incomplete mean-field analysis of a simple model of Ginzburg-Landau type. The latter contains a stable nonunitary phase, which has not been found in the paper by Li et al. and is missing in the outlined picture of possible stable phases. In this Comment, the mean-field analysis has been corrected, the errors have been explained in detail, and relevant topics have been discussed. Shortcomings in the mean-field-like and renormalization-group studies in the mentioned paper have also been revealed.
