Abstract
Within density-functional theory a time-dependent perturbation theory is derived that yields exact orbital-dependent expressions for the time-dependent exchange-correlation potential in the form of a perturbation series. This leads to an exact time-dependent Kohn-Sham scheme based on perturbation theory. In first order an ``exchange-only'' Kohn-Sham procedure is obtained, that is a generalization of a recently presented time-dependent optimized potential method. The exact, in higher order, but quite complicated expressions for the exchange-correlation potential may serve as a starting point for the construction of approximate exchange-correlation potentials. An adiabatic connection or coupling constant path between a time-dependent physical system and its corresponding Kohn-Sham system is introduced.
