Abstract
What follows is motivated by the classical inverse problem for homogeneous highly correlated systems: Given complete structural information [at the pair level this will be the static structure factor S(k) for all k], find the effective pair-potential ø (r) that will generate that structure. There is a unique functional relationship βø(r) = F[S(k)] [with β the inverse temperature l/(kT)], between the pair-potential and the static structure factor. However, in practice this is a very difficult problem to solve, in part, because of the extreme sensitivity of the resultant βø (r) to the input functions S(k).
