Abstract

The pairing instability induced by either a given attractive interaction or particle-hole excitations is examined by using the perturbational diagram approach. A graphical functional derivative method based on Ward's identity is developed to represent the contributions to the interparticle interactions from different channels. It is shown that pairing instability for the electrons excited from the Fermi sea may happen due to the presence of holes even when the original interaction is repulsive. Thus, in contrast to the Cooper instability caused by a given attractive interaction, the pairing instability can be induced by the particle-hole excitations. The scattering diagrams from this model allows one to evaluate the two particle vertex function and T_c by using the pole condition of the vertex function. It has been found that T_c can reach quite high values and gives rise to the bell shape. The application of the results to a layered 2D Fermi gas is considered.
