Abstract
Common G0W0 implementations rely on numerical or analytical frequency integration to determine the G0W0 self-energy, which results in a variety of practical complications. Recently, we have demonstrated an exact connection between the G0W0 approximation and equation-of-motion quantum chemistry approaches [J. Tölle and G. Kin-Lic Chan, J. Chem. Phys. 158, 124123 (2023)]. Based on this connection, we propose a new method to determine G0W0 quasiparticle energies, which completely avoids frequency integration and its associated problems. To achieve this, we make use of an auxiliary boson (AB) expansion. We name the new approach AB-G0W0 and demonstrate its practical applicability in a range of molecular problems.
