We introduce an alternative route to quasiparticle self-consistent $GW$ calculations ($\mathrm{qs}GW$) on the basis of a Joint Approximate Diagonalization of the one-body $GW$ Green's functions $G(\varepsilon_n^{QP})$ taken at the input…
We provide an in-depth examination of the $GW$ approximation of Green's function many-body perturbation theory by detailing both its theoretical and practical aspects in the realm of quantum chemistry. First, the quasiparticle context is…
We show how to construct an effective Hamiltonian whose dimension scales linearly with system size, and whose eigenvalues systematically approximate the excitation energies of GW theory. This is achieved by rigorously expanding the…
We perform $GW$ calculations on atoms and diatomic molecules at different levels of self-consistency and investigate the effects of self-consistency on total energies, ionization potentials and on particle number conservation. We further…
Two self-consistent schemes involving Hedin's $GW$ approximation are studied for a set of sixteen different atoms and small molecules. We compare results from the fully self-consistent $GW$ approximation (SC$GW$) and the quasi-particle…
GW calculations with fully self-consistent G and W -- based on the iterative solution of the Dyson equation -- provide an approach for consistently describing ground and excited states on the same quantum mechanical level. We show that for…
The $GW$ approximation is a well-established method for calculating ionization potentials and electron affinities in solids and molecules. For numerous years, obtaining self-consistent $GW$ total energies in solids has been a challenging…
Several widely used methods for the calculation of band structures and photo emission spectra, such as the GW approximation, rely on Many-Body Perturbation Theory. They can be obtained by iterating a set of functional differential equations…
The family of Green's function methods based on the $GW$ approximation has gained popularity in the electronic structure theory thanks to its accuracy in weakly correlated systems combined with its cost-effectiveness. Despite this,…
We present a many-body $GW$ formalism for quantum subsystems embedded in discrete polarizable environments containing up to several hundred thousand atoms described at a fully ab initio random phase approximation level. Our approach is…
By recasting the non-linear frequency-dependent $GW$ quasiparticle equation into a linear eigenvalue problem, we explain the appearance of multiple solutions and unphysical discontinuities in various physical quantities computed within the…
We develop a formalism to calculate the quasi-particle energy within the GW many-body perturbation correction to the density functional theory (DFT). The occupied and virtual orbitals of the Kohn-Sham (KS) Hamiltonian are replaced by…
We have developed a new type of self-consistent scheme within the $GW$ approximation, which we call quasiparticle self-consistent $GW$ (QS$GW$). We have shown that QS$GW$ rather well describes energy bands for a wide-range of materials,…
Using the simple (symmetric) Hubbard dimer, we analyze some important features of the $GW$ approximation. We show that the problem of the existence of multiple quasiparticle solutions in the (perturbative) one-shot $GW$ method and its…
The GW approximation is a cornerstone of many-body perturbation theory for computing single-particle excitations, yet it fundamentally breaks down in strongly correlated systems where the single-reference picture fails. To overcome this…
Historically, the GW approach was put forward by Hedin as the simplest approximation to the so-called Hedin equations. In Section 2, we will derive these Hedin equations from a Feynman-diagrammatical point of view. Section 3.1 shows how GW…
Theoretical descriptions of non equilibrium dynamics of quantum many-body systems essentially employ either (i) explicit treatments, relying on truncation of the expansion of the many-body wave function, (ii) compressed representations of…
We develop Green's function formalism to describe continuous multi-layered quasi-one-dimensional setups described by piece-wise constant single-particle Hamiltonians. The Hamiltonians of the individual layers are assumed to be quadratic…
Similar to other electron correlation methods, many-body perturbation theory methods based on Green functions, such as the so-called $GW$ approximation, suffer from the usual slow convergence of energetic properties with respect to the size…
We present the concept, derivation, and implementation of dynamical configuration interaction, a quantum embedding theory that combines Green's function methodology with the many-body wave function. In a strongly-correlated active space, we…
