We have found in [1] new conditions for a total neutrino conversion in the
case of neutrino oscillations taking place in a medium, consisting of n = 2 (or
3) alternating layers with constant densities and . It is claimed in
[4] that our results are particular case of enhancement of neutrino
oscillations, which was suggested earlier by other authors and was widely
discussed in the literature. We refute these claims, confirming the novelty of
our results.Comment: 2 pages, LATEX; concise (essentially 1 page) and somewhat modified
