Abstract

The role of the subsidiary conditions in the Bohm-Pines collective description of electron interactions is discussed in detail. The subsidiary conditions are shown to be compatible with the approximations made in obtaining the Hamiltonian and energy of the many-electron system. Their effect on the ground-state energy and the specific heat is found to be small.
