The low‐energy spectrum of one‐dimensional lattice electron system with long‐range inter‐electron repulsion is studied at arbitrary electron concentration, ρ . It is established that the value of the gap in this spectrum is an oscillating function of inverse electron concentration. This value tends to zero at ρ = 1/ q ( q = 1, 2 …), reaching the maximum at ρ = 2/(2 q + 1). It is shown that the low‐energy spectrum of the system under consideration may be described in terms of one‐dimensional structures which are analogues of domains in one‐dimensional spin systems. The question about these “domains” decay is considered. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
