## Abstract

Conditions for intra and inter layer Coulomb interactions in multi-walled carbon nanotubes are derived from stability of capacitance excitations. It is pointed out, supposing the stability conditions are not satisfied, that the system has unstable modes which correspond to a charge transfer between layers or charge density oscillation in each layer depending on zero mode or non-zero modes. It is argued that the stability conditions can be broken when the vacuum polarization processes due to the massive bands are taken into account.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
