We use the correlated basis functions method to explore the problem of the Pe-ierls instability due to the electron correlation in hydrogen chain. Our thory shows that the bond alternation is reduced from 0.37 (au) to 0.32 (au) by the electron correlation, but the Peierls instability survives under the electron-electron interaction.
