Abstract
The adiabatic connection formalism, usually based on the first-order perturbation theory, has been generalized to an arbitrary order. The generalization stems from the observation that the formalism can be derived from a properly arranged Taylor expansion. The second-order theory is developed in detail and applied to the description of two electrons in a parabolic confinement (harmonium). A significant improvement relative to the first-order theory has been obtained.
