Abstract
We analyze conditions of applicability of grand-canonical mean-field Bardeen–Cooper–Schrieffer theory to the evaluation of an interaction energy in the ground state of small-sized superconductors. We argue that this theory fails to describe correctly an interaction energy, when an average distance between energy levels near the Fermi energy due to the size quantization becomes of the order of the single-pair binding energy. In conventional superconductors, this quantity is much smaller than the superconducting gap.
