Functional derivatives of Tc for a two-band superconductor: application   to MgB2
  We address the question of how phonons of various frequencies contribute to the superconducting transition temperature $T_c$ of a multi-band superconductor by considering the functional derivatives of $T_c$ with respect to various intraband and interband electron-phonon coupling functions. A general scheme for computing such functional derivatives is developed. The proofs are given that the functional derivatives which are diagonal in band indices are linear in phonon energy $\Omega$ at small $\Omega$, while the functional derivatives which are off-diagonal in band indices diverge at $\Omega$ = 0 as 1/$\Omega$. The case of a two-band model for MgB$_{2}$ is treated numerically.
