Kohn-Sham ensemble v-representability of Coulomb ground-state densities by potentials in L^{3/2}+L^infinity
Theorem 1.1: there is a finite positive integer Z such that the three-electron Coulomb Hamiltonian with two nuclei of charge Z at ±(D/Z)ez, D=10200, has a normalizable absolute ground state Ψ (sector Sz=1/2) whose spin-summed density is not the density of any ground-state ensemble of Hs(v) for any real v∈L3/2+L∞. The mechanism is the Gori-Giorgi-Gal-Baerends nodal-plane asymptotics, made rigorous, plus a kinetic certificate against all ensembles. A corollary rules out a local-potential first variation of the ensemble Hartree-exchange-correlation functional at that density. Not covered: larger potential classes, atoms, or physically realistic charges.
