Abstract
We have investigated the ground-state properties of a model system with a strong electron-phonon interaction. It is found that as long as the renormalized intersite electron correlation is attractive, a new type of Cooper pairing will occur whether the renormalized on-site electron correlation is repulsive or attractive. Furthermore, we have shown that a new phonon coherent state, named a two-phonon coherent state, must be introduced to serve as the ground state of the phonon subsystem, so that the ground-state energy of the interacting system can be made a stable minimum and an appropriate condensation energy of the superconducting ground state may be obtained. We have performed numerical calculations for the n=1 case.
