One of long-standing problems in mathematical studies of superconductivity is to show that the solution to the BCS gap equation is continuous in the temperature. In this paper we address this problem. We regard the BCS gap equation as a…

In the standard theory of superconductivity a quasiparticle excitation changes the energy of the system by the quasiparticle energy. But the number of excitations determine also the gap energy which further determines the energy of the…
