Most of BSE implementations rely on the so-called static approximation, which approximates the dynamical (\ie, frequency-dependent) BSE kernel by its static limit. Most of BSE implementations rely on the so-called static approximation, which approximates the dynamical (\ie, frequency-dependent) BSE kernel by its static limit.
One key consequence of this approximation is that double (and higher) excitations are completely absent from the BSE spectra. One key consequence of this approximation is that double (and higher) excitations are completely absent from the BSE spectra.
Although these double excitations are usually experimentally dark (which means that they usually cannot be observed in photo-absorption spectroscopy), these states play, indirectly, a key role in many photochemistry mechanisms. \cite{Boggio-Pasqua_2007} Although these double excitations are usually experimentally dark (which means that they usually cannot be observed in photo-absorption spectroscopy), these states play, indirectly, a key role in many photochemistry mechanisms. \cite{Boggio-Pasqua_2007}

In terms of computational consideration, because Eq.~\eqref{eq:EcBSE} requires the entire BSE singlet excitation spectrum, we perform a complete diagonalization of the $\Nocc \Nvir \times \Nocc \Nvir$ BSE linear response matrix [see Eq.~\eqref{eq:small-LR}], which corresponds to a $\order{\Nocc^3 \Nvir^3} = \order{\Norb^6}$ computational cost.

\section{Computational details}
\label{sec:compdet}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
The restricted HF formalism has been systematically employed in the present study.
All the $GW$ calculations performed to obtain the screened Coulomb operator and the quasiparticle energies are done using a (restricted) HF starting point.
Perturbative $GW$ (or {\GOWO}) \cite{Hybertsen_1985a, Hybertsen_1986} and partially self-consistent ev$GW$ calculations are employed as starting points to compute the BSE neutral excitations.
Within $GW$, all orbitals are corrected.
In the case of {\GOWO}, the quasiparticle energies are obtained by linearizing the frequency-dependent quasiparticle equation.
For ev$GW$, the convergence creiterion has been set to $10^{-5}$.
Further details about our implementation of {\GOWO} and evGW can be found in Refs.~\onlinecite{Loos_2018b,Veril_2018}.
Finally, the infinitesimal $\eta$ is set to $100$ meV for all calculations.
For comparison purposes, we employ the reference excitation energies and geometries from Ref.~\onlinecite{Loos_2018a} also computed the PES at the second-order M{\o}ller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2), as well as with various increasingly accurate CC methods, namely, CC2 \cite{Christiansen_1995}, CCSD, \cite{Purvis_1982} and CC3. \cite{Christiansen_1995b}
All the other calculations have been performed with our locally developed $GW$ software. \cite{Loos_2018b,Veril_2018}
As one-electron basis sets, we employ the augmented Dunning family (aug-cc-pVXZ) defined with cartesian Gaussian functions.
