We study the computational complexity of the N-representability problem in
quantum chemistry. We show that this problem is QMA-complete, which is the
quantum generalization of NP-complete. Our proof uses a simple mapping from
spin systems to fermionic systems, as well as a convex optimization technique
that reduces the problem of finding ground states to N-representability.
