A more precise definition of the Nernst theorem is that in the thermodynamic limit (N ) the entropy per particle S/N kg ln(ΩN)/N should verify lim N ln(ΩN)/N 0 at T 0, limiting the possible number of ground states for a many-body system (see, for example, Kardar M 2007 Statistical Physics of Particles (Cambridge University Press, Cambridge)) Note that as long as the ground-state degeneracy does not grow exponentially with the system size, then the entropy per particle does vanish at zero temperature in the thermodynamic limit
