In terms of the density matrix and pairing tensor ,
defined as
|
(7) |
the HFB energy is expressed as an energy functional:
where
The variation of the HFB energy (8) with respect to and
yields the HFB equations:

where

and are the th columns of matrices and ,
respectively, and is a positive quasiparticle energy eigenvalue.
Since the HFB state
violates the particle-number symmetry,
the Fermi energy is introduced to fix the average particle number.
