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
[tex]E = ... - 2*\frac{\Delta^2}{V}[/tex]
But in the book
[tex]E = ... - \frac{\Delta^2}{V}[/tex]
Homework Equations
[tex]\frac{2}{V} = \sum\frac{1}{E_k}[/tex]
The Attempt at a Solution
My calculated Ground State Energy
[tex]E = ... - 2*\frac{\Delta^2}{V}[/tex]
because of
[tex]\frac{2}{V} = \sum\frac{1}{E_k}[/tex]
and if we insert it into energy equation a "2" will be there.
