34. v- and N-representability We can minimize E[ρ] by varying density ρ, however, the variation can not be arbitrary because this ρ is not guaranteed to be ground state density. This is called the v-representable problem. A density ρ (r) is said to be v-representable if ρ (r) is associated with the ground state wave function of Homiltonian Ĥ with some external potential ν(r).
