As a formulation for calculating the dynamic polarizabilities and hyperpola
rizabilities, two different types of the time-dependent Moller-Plesset pert
urbation theory (MPPT) are presented: the MPPT in the quasienergy derivativ
e method (QED-MPPT) and the MPPT in the energylike derivative method (ELD-M
PPT). The explicit expressions for the response properties in each of these
MPPT up to the quadratic response [ mu, alpha(- omega(1), omega(1)), beta(
- omega(sigma), omega(1), omega(2))] at an arbitrary correlated order are g
iven. Calculations of the dynamic polarizabilities and hyperpolarizabilitie
s dependent on one frequency at the second-order MPPT (MP2) in the QED meth
od (QED-MP2) and in the ELD method (ELD-MP2), are examined for 10-electron
systems: hydrogen fluoride and neon. (C) 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
