Abstract
Using the seniority-conserving mapping of a realistic fermion hamiltonian into a boson space it is shown that this leads to serious problems for quadrupole forces in a single j-shell. The lack of agreement of the exact spectrum with the mapped one persists if realistic forces are used. This observation invalidates many “microscopic justifications” of the interacting boson model by lowest-order boson mapping.
