Homework Statement
In "Introduction to superconductivity" by Tinkham, in section 3.4.2 he calculates ground state energy. I get different result when I calculate it
My calculated Ground State Energy
E = ... - 2*\frac{\Delta^2}{V}
But in the book
E = ... - \frac{\Delta^2}{V}
Homework Equations
\frac{2}{V} = \sum\frac{1}{E_k}
The Attempt at a Solution
My calculated Ground State Energy
E = ... - 2*\frac{\Delta^2}{V}
because of
\frac{2}{V} = \sum\frac{1}{E_k}
and if we insert it into energy equation a "2" will be there.
