Description
The interaction model of two electrons in the edge states of a two-dimensional topological insulator is investigated. Both solutions of the Schr\"odinger equation and solutions of the Bethe-Salpeter equation at different values of the Fermi energy are considered. It is shown that for the Bethe-Salpeter equation, which takes into account the existence of the Fermi surface, there is a discrete spectrum in the system of two electrons. This phenomenon does not appear in the case of the Schr\"odinger equation.
