Hartree-Fock approximation for the one-dimensional electron gas

The Hartree-Fock calculation on the one-dimensional electron gas is done on the basis of the method analogous to that applied by Bloch and Wigner and Seitz for the three-dimensional gas. The boundary conditions of the standing wave are taken for the wave function and the bare Coulomb interaction between electrons is assumed. The parameterr _s of the three-dimensional gas is replaced by the ratio between the cross-section radius and the length of the potential tube filled by the one-dimensional gas. Excepting for a special case of the excitement of an electron pair put on one electron level the excitation energies of the non-magnetic gas are found to be very much higher than these of the ferromagnetic gas. A similar relation holds between the ground state energies of the non-magnetic and magnetic gases.
