abstract = {This paper investigates the existence and non-existence of normalized ground state solutions for the following Choquard equation with mixed local and nonlocal operators, involving the Hardy-Littlewood-Sobolev (HLS) lower critical exponent. For the critical case    p  =  2  +      4    N  , we employ fibering map analysis to establish the non-existence of solutions. In the subcritical regime    2  &lt;  p  &lt;  2  +      4    N  , we utilize variational methods to prove the existence of normalized ground states, which are shown to be radially symmetric and strictly decreasing in        |    x      |  . For the supercritical case    2  +      4    N    &lt;  p  &lt;      2    s    ∗  , we introduce a homotopy-stable family to construct a Palais–Smale sequence with a negative Lagrange multiplier. By analyzing the compactness properties of this sequence, we demonstrate the existence of normalized ground state solutions in this regime as well.}
