Abstract

Since the early 1980’s there have been numerous attempts to generalize the variational density domain of the Hohenberg-Kohn universal density functional to unnormalized densities. Recently, several papers by Lindgren and Salomonson [Phys. Rev. A 67, 056501 (2003); 70, 032509 (2004); and Adv. Quantum Chem. 43, 95 (2003)] and by Gal [Phys. Rev. A 63, 022506 (2001); 64, 062503 (2001); J. Phys. A 35, 5899 (2002)] appeared in the literature. We point out that all such efforts do not agree with some results of density functional theory.
