Exciton effects are studied in single-wall boron–nitride (BN) nanotubes. The Coulomb interaction dependence of the band gap, the optical gap, and the binding energy of excitons are discussed. The optical gap of the $(5,0)$ nanotube is about 6 eV at the onsite interaction $U=2t$ with the hopping integral $t=1.1$ eV. The binding energy of the exciton is 0.50 eV for these parameters. This energy agrees well with that of other theoretical investigations. We find that the energy gap and the binding energy are almost independent of the geometries of nanotubes. This novel property is in contrast with that of the carbon nanotubes which show metallic and semiconducting properties depending on the chiralities.
