GW approximation is one of the most popular parameter-free many-body methods that goes beyond the limitations of the standard density functional theory (DFT) to determine the excitation spectra for moderately correlated materials and in…

During the last few years, it has become more and more clear that functionals of the meta generalized gradient approximation (MGGA) are more accurate than GGA functionals for the geometry and energetics of electronic systems. However, MGGA…

For materials which are incorrectly predicted by density functional theory to be metallic, an iterative procedure must be adopted in order to perform GW calculations. In this paper we test two iterative schemes based on the quasi-particle…

In solid-state physics/chemistry, a precise understanding of defect formation and its impact on the electronic properties of wide-bandgap insulators is a cornerstone of modern semiconductor technology. However, complexities arise in the…

The performance of many-body perturbation theory for calculating ground-state properties is investigated. We present fully numerical results for the electron gas in three and two dimensions in the framework of the GW approximation. The…

A few self-consistent schemes to solve the Hedin equations are presented. They include vertex corrections of different complexity. Commonly used quasiparticle approximation for the Green function and static approximation for the screened…

We present an extension of the quasiparticle self-consistent $GW$ approximation (QS$GW$) [Phys. Rev. B, 76 165106 (2007)] to include vertex corrections in the screened Coulomb interaction $W$. This is achieved by solving the Bethe-Salpeter…

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 have recently implemented a new version of the quasiparticle self-consistent GW (QSGW) method in the ecalj package released at http://github.com/tkotani/ecalj. Since the new version of the ecalj is numerically stable and accurate…

The GW approximation is widely used for reliable and accurate modeling of single-particle excitations. It also serves as a starting point for many theoretical methods, such as its use in the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) and dynamical…

Electron correlation in finite and extended systems is often described in an effective single-particle framework within the $GW$ approximation. Here, we use the statically screened second-order exchange contribution to the self-energy…

The theoretical formulation and numerical evaluation of the vertex corrections in multiorbital techniques of theories of electronic properties of random alloys are analyzed. It is shown that current approaches to static transport properties…

The GW Approximation is an ab initio approach to calculating electronic structure which avoids using the Local Density (LDA) Approximation, the Generalized Gradient (GGA) Approximation, or similar density functionals. It goes beyond the…

We have proposed a method for correcting the Kohn-Sham eigen energies in the density functional theory (DFT) based on the Koopmans theorem using Wannier functions. The method provides a general approach applicable for molecules and solids…

Recently, Shih et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 146401 (2010)] published a theoretical band gap for wurtzite ZnO, calculated with the non-selfconsistent GW approximation, that agreed surprisingly well with experiment while deviating strongly…

The energy correction associated with the self-energy diagram is the leading (in magnitude) and fundamental (in significance) contribution to the Lamb shift in highly charged ions. Conventional approaches to this correction rely on…

The electronic band structure of SrTiO$_3$ is investigated in the all-electron QS$GW$ approximation. Unlike previous pseudopotential based QS$GW$ or single-shot $G_0W_0$ calculations, the gap is found to be significantly overestimated…

Diagrammatic perturbation theory is a powerful tool for the investigation of interacting many-body systems, the self-energy operator $\Sigma$ encoding all the variety of scattering processes. In the simplest scenario of correlated electrons…

The $GW$ approximation has become a method of choice for predicting quasiparticle properties in solids and large molecular systems, owing to its favorable accuracy-cost balance. However, its accuracy is the result of a fortuitous…

The exploitation of space group symmetries in numerical calculations of periodic crystalline solids accelerates calculations and provides physical insight. We present results for a space-group symmetry adaptation of electronic structure…
