\begin{abstract}
The many-body Green's function Bethe-Salpeter formalism is steadily asserting itself as a new efficient and accurate tool in the armada of computational methods available to chemists in order to predict neutral electronic excitations in molecular systems.
In particular, the combination of the so-called $GW$ approximation of many-body perturbation theory, giving access to reliable charged excitations and quasiparticle energies, and the Bethe-Salpeter formalism, allowing to catch excitonic effects, has shown to provide accurate excitation energies in many chemical scenarios with a typical error of $0.1$--$0.3$ eV.

The present \textit{Perspective} aims at describing the current status and upcoming challenges for the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) formalism \cite{Salpeter_1951,Strinati_1988} that, while sharing many features with time-dependent density-functional theory (TD-DFT), \cite{Runge_1984,Casida_1995,Dreuw_2005} including computational cost scaling with system size, relies on a different formalism, with specific difficulties but also potential solutions to known issues. \cite{Blase_2018}

Originally developed in the framework of nuclear physics, \cite{Salpeter_1951} the BSE formalism has emerged in condensed-matter physics around the 1960's at the semi-empirical tight-binding level with the study of the optical properties of simple semiconductors. \cite{Sham_1966,Strinati_1984,Delerue_2000}
Three decades later, the first \textit{ab initio} implementations, starting with small clusters \cite{Onida_1995,Rohlfing_1998} extended semiconductors and wide-gap insulators, \cite{Albrecht_1997,Benedict_1998,Rohlfing_1999} paved the way to the popularization in the solid-state physics community of the BSE formalism.
Following early applications to periodic polymers and molecules, [REFS] BSE gained much momentum in the quantum chemistry community with, in particular, several benchmarks \cite{Korbel_2014,Jacquemin_2015a,Bruneval_2015,Jacquemin_2015b,Hirose_2015,Jacquemin_2017,Krause_2017,Gui_2018} on large molecular systems performed with the very same parameters (geometries, basis sets, etc) than the available higher-level reference calculations, \cite{Schreiber_2008} such as CC3. \cite{Christiansen_1995}
Such comparisons were grounded in the development of codes replacing the plane-wave paradigm of solid-state physics by well-documented correlation-consistent Gaussian basis sets, \cite{Dunning_1989} together with adequate auxiliary bases when resolution-of-the-identity (RI) techniques were used. [REFS]
An important conclusion drawn from these calculations was that the quality of the BSE excitation energies is strongly correlated to the deviation of the preceding $GW$ HOMO-LUMO gap
\begin{equation}
\Eg^{\GW} = \eps_{\LUMO}^{\GW} - \varepsilon_{\HOMO}^{\GW}
\end{equation}
with the experimental (photoemission) fundamental gap \cite{Bredas_2014}
\begin{equation}
\EgFun = I^N - A^N,
\end{equation}
where $I^N = E_0^{N-1} - E_0^N$ and $A^N = E_0^{N+1} - E_0^N$ are the ionization potential and the electron affinity of the $N$-electron system, $E_s^{N}$ is the total energy of the $s$th excited state of the $N$-electron system, and $E_0^N$ corresponds to the $N$-electron ground-state energy (see Fig.~\ref{fig:gaps}).

but still too small as compared to the experimental value, \ie,
\begin{equation}
\Eg^{\KS} \ll \Eg^{G_0W_0} < \EgFun.

Such an underestimation of the fundamental gap leads to a similar underestimation of the optical gap $\EgOpt$, \ie, the lowest optical excitation energy.

\EgOpt = E_1^{N} - E_0^{N} = \EgFun + \EB,

Such a residual HOMO-LUMO gap problem can be significantly improved by adopting exchange-correlation (xc) functionals with a tuned amount of exact exchange \cite{Stein_2009,Kronik_2012} that yield a much improved KS gap as a starting point for the $GW$ correction. \cite{Bruneval_2013,Rangel_2016,Knight_2016}
Alternatively, self-consistent schemes, \cite{Hybertsen_1986,Shishkin_2007,Blase_2011,Faber_2011} where corrected eigenvalues, and possibly orbitals, \cite{Faleev_2004, vanSchilfgaarde_2006, Kotani_2007, Ke_2011} are reinjected in the construction of $G$ and $W$, have been shown to lead to a significant improvement of the quasiparticle energies in the case of molecular systems, with the advantage of significantly removing the dependence on the starting point functional. \cite{Rangel_2016,Kaplan_2016,Caruso_2016}
As a result, BSE excitation singlet energies starting from such improved quasiparticle energies were found to be in much better agreement with reference calculations.
For sake of illustration, an average error of $0.2$ eV was found for the well-known Thiel set \cite{Schreiber_2008} gathering more than hundred representative singlet excitations from a large variety of representative molecules. \cite{Jacquemin_2015a,Bruneval_2015,Gui_2018,Krause_2017}

The BSE formalism \cite{Salpeter_1951,Strinati_1988,Albrecht_1998,Rohlfing_1998,Benedict_1998,vanderHorst_1999} belongs to the family of Green's function many-body perturbation theories (MBPT) \cite{Hedin_1965,Aryasetiawan_1998,Onida_2002,Reining_2017,ReiningBook} together with, for example, the algebraic-diagrammatic construction (ADC) techniques in quantum chemistry. \cite{Dreuw_2015}

where $\mu$ is the chemical potential, $\eta$ is a positive infinitesimal, $\varepsilon_s = E_s^{N+1} - E_0^{N}$ for $\varepsilon_s > \mu$, and $\varepsilon_s = E_0^{N} - E_s^{N-1}$ for $\varepsilon_s < \mu$.

Unlike KS eigenvalues, the Green's function poles $\lbrace \varepsilon_s \rbrace$ are thus the proper \titou{charging} energies of the $N$-electron system, leading to well-defined ionization potentials and electronic affinities. Contrary to standard $\Delta$SCF techniques, the knowledge of $G$ provides the full ionization spectrum, as measured by direct and inverse photoemission, not only that associated with frontier orbitals.

Using the equation-of-motion formalism for the creation/destruction operators, it can be shown formally that $G$ verifies

Here, $h$ is the \titou{one-body Hartree Hamiltonian} and $\Sigma$ the so-called exchange-correlation (xc) self-energy operator.
Using the spectral representation of $G$ [see Eq.~\eqref{eq:spectralG}], one obtains the familiar eigenvalue equation, \ie,
\begin{equation}
h(\br) f_s(\br) + \int d\br' \, \Sigma(\br,\br'; \varepsilon_s ) f_s(\br) = \varepsilon_s f_s(\br)
h(\br) f_s(\br) + \int d\br' \, \Sigma(\br,\br'; \varepsilon_s ) f_s(\br) = \varepsilon_s f_s(\br),

The knowledge of $\Sigma$ allows thus to obtain the true addition/removal energies, namely the entire spectrum of occupied and virtual electronic energy levels, at the cost of solving a generalized one-body eigenvalue equation. [INTRODUCE QUASIPARTICLES and OTHER solutions ??] \\
