Density functional theory for a single excited state is presented using Kato's theorem and the concept of adiabatic connection. The degenerate case is also detailed. The optimized potential method is generalized. The generalized Krieger, Li, and Ž . Iafrate KLI approximation is derived.

✦ Synopsis
For Hamiltonians which are invariant under a group of transformations, one can restrict the search for the energy eigenstates in spaces whose functions transform according to the irreducible representations of the group. However, the construction of a Slater determinant to represent the equivalent noninteracting system of DFT, with the proper transformation properties, is not trivial. Further such a determinant does not always w Ž .x exist. The use of the subspace theory J. Phys. C 12, 5419 1979 developed initially to deal with the density functional theory for excited states overcomes this difficulty and an equivalent system of one-particle Kohn and Sham equations is derived with nonintegral occupation numbers in the expression of the density. In this article, we derive the explicit form of the subspace density for systems with spherical symmetry. The density does not depend on the Clebsch᎐Gordan coefficients, but only on the radial part of the orbitals entering the determinant of the noninteracting state with largest 1.
