Abstract

Chiefly simplified discussion of the (meanfield) Peieris transition; nearly-divergent density response of the 1-d conduction electron system at 2kF; its consequences for the stability of a hypothetical 1-d metal; derivation of Tc; calculation of distortion amplitude and energy gap below Tc.
