Abstract
We discuss interaction effects for the one-dimensional electron gas with a repulsive \ensuremath{\delta}-function interaction potential by using the random-phase approximation and a local-field correction. Analytical results for the local-field correction of charge-density fluctuations and spin-density fluctuations are obtained. The ground-state energy is found to be in better agreement with the exact result than the ground-state energy calculated within the random-phase approximation. We calculate the pair-correlation functions for electrons with parallel and antiparallel spins and the paramagnetic susceptibility. The energies of the collective density modes ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{\mathrm{d}}$ (q) and the collective spin modes ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{\mathrm{s}}$ (q) are calculated and compared with the energy of the electron-hole excitations ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{\mathrm{eh}\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}}$ (q): ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{\mathrm{d}}$ (q\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0)>${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{\mathrm{eh}\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}}$ (q\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0)>${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\omega}}}_{\mathrm{s}}$ (q\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0). The critical exponents for the long-distance behavior of correlation functions are found to be described by local-field corrections. We compare our results for the critical exponents with recent results obtained by bosonization techniques and the conformal field theory.
