Renormalization-group equations are derived and numerically solved for
one-dimensional, quarter-filled electron systems with a backward scat
tering, the Umklapp process, and couplings with 0, 2k(F), 4k(F) phonon
s. A charge gap opens when the Umklapp process becomes relevant throug
h constructive interference with the coupling with 4k(F) phonons, thou
gh the Umklapp process itself is weak. Meanwhile, a spin gap opens whe
n the coupling with 2k(F) phonons is strong enough. consider three-dim
ensionality by cutting off the logarithmic divergence in the Cooper or
2k(F) electron-hole channel. The former case may explain a qualitativ
e difference between the resistivity of (DMe-DCNQI)(2)Ag and that of (
DI-DCNQI)(2)Ag.
