38. It is important to distinguish "amplitude fluctuations" in the superconducting order from the "pairing gap" of the electrons. The former measures the strength of the superconducting correlations, while the latter is an energy gap associated with the fermionic spectrum at high energies. In particular, at low T near a superconductor-insulator transition it was argued in Refs. 30,31 that the amplitude fluctuations become very strong. In contrast, the gap in the electron spectrum remains finite across such a transition.
