It is easier if you...- halucka

How to Diagonalize a Hamiltonian with Fermion Operators?
The spectrum cannot be given by E=v_Fk_F\pm v_F(\Delta^2+k^2)^{1/2} because the units of \Delta and k are not the same. I tried rewriting the first term (linear kinetic energy) using operators shifted by k_F and then diagonalizing it, and I got E=\frac{1}{2} (v_F k_F \pm (v_F^2 k^2 +...- halucka
