Abstract 

We consider low-dimensional model systems with a fixed two-body interaction and a variable (nonlocal) one-body potential. It is shown explicitly that an extended domain of allowed (N-representable) one-body density matrices cannot be generated in this way, the excluded domain depending on the two-body interaction under consideration. This stands in contrast to the behavior of the diagonal part of the density matrix.
