A simplified theory of the telescopic oscillations in multi-walled carbon nanotubes is developed. The explicit
expressions for the telescopic force constants (longitudinal rigidity) and the frequencies of telescopic oscillations
are derived. The contribution of small-amplitude telescopic oscillations to the nanotubes low temperature specific
heat is estimated.
