From coupled-cluster theory and many-body perturbation theory we derive the local exchange- correlation potential of density functional theory in an orbital dependent form. We show the relationship between the coupled-cluster approach and density functional theory, and connections and comparisons with our previous second-order correlation potential [OEP-MBPT(2) (OEP-optimized effective potential)] [I. Grabowski, S. Hirata, S. Ivanov, and R. J. Bartlett, J. Chem. Phys. 116, 4415 (2002)]. Starting from a general theoretical framework based on the density condition in Kohn-Sham theory, we define a rigorous exchange-correlation functional, potential and orbitals. Specifying, initially to second-order terms, we show that our ab initio correlation potential provides the correct shape compared to those from reference quantum Monte Carlo calculations, and we demonstrate the superiority of using Fock matrix elements or more general infinite-order semicanonical transformations. This enables us to introduce a method that is guaranteed to converge to the right answer in the correlation and basis set limit, just as does ab initio wave function theory. We also demonstrate that the energies obtained from this generalized second-order method [OEP-MBPT(2)-f] and [OEP-MBPT(2)-sc] are often of coupled-cluster accuracy and substantially better than ordinary Hartree-Fock based second-order MBPT=MP2.
