As pointed out by the comments of Wickramaratne et al., there was indeed an algebra error in our original publication [Phys. Rev. B 91, 205315 (2015)] in calculating the 1D model. We have corrected this error, and did a renewed calculation and comparison of the 1D model and other approximated models. The revised comparison provides some insights for the origin of the difference between the full phonon spectrum electron-phonon coupling static formula results and other approximated results, especially for how to evaluate the amplitude of electron-phonon coupling.
