We analyze the map from potentials to the ground state in static many-body quantum mechanics. We first prove that the space of binding potentials is path-connected. Then we show that the map is locally weak-strong continuous and that its differential is compact. In particular, this implies the ill-posedness of the Kohn-Sham inverse problem.
