Similitudes between BSE@$GW$ and the similarity-transformed equation-of-motion CC method introduced by Nooijen are put forward.
The present work allows to easily transfer key developments and general knowledge gathered in CC theory to many-body perturbation theory.
In particular, it provides a clear path for the computation of ground- and excited-state properties (such as nuclear gradients) within the BSE framework.

\section{RPA Physics and Beyond}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
The random-phase approximation (RPA), introduced by Bohm and Pines \cite{Bohm_1951,Pines_1952,Bohm_1953} in the context of the uniform electron gas, \cite{Loos_2016} is a quasibosonic approximation where one treats fermion products as bosons.
In the particle-hole (ph) channel, which is quite popular in the electronic structure community, particle-hole fermionic excitations and deexcitations are assumed to be bosons.
Because RPA corresponds to a resummation of all ring diagrams, it is adequate in the high-density (or weakly correlated) regime and catch effectively long-range correlation effects (such as dispersion). \cite{Gell-Mann_1957,Nozieres_1958}
Roughly speaking, the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) formalism \cite{Salpeter_1951,Strinati_1988,Blase_2018,Blase_2020} of many-body perturbation theory \cite{Martin_2016} can be seen as a cheap and effective way of introducing correlation in order to go \textit{beyond} RPA physics.
Roughly speaking, the Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) formalism \cite{Salpeter_1951,Strinati_1988,Blase_2018,Blase_2020} of many-body perturbation theory \cite{Martin_2016} can be seen as a cheap and efficient way of introducing correlation in order to go \textit{beyond} RPA physics.
In the ph channel, BSE is commonly performed on top of a $GW$ calculation \cite{Hedin_1965,Aryasetiawan_1998,Onida_2002,Reining_2017,Golze_2019,Bruneval_2021} from which one extracts the quasiparticle energies as well as the dynamically-screened Coulomb potential $W$.
This scheme has been shown to be highly successful to compute low-lying excited states of various natures (charge transfer, Rydberg, valence, etc) in molecular systems with a very attractive accuracy/cost ratio.\cite{Rohlfing_1999a,Horst_1999,Puschnig_2002,Tiago_2003,Rocca_2010,Boulanger_2014,Jacquemin_2015a,Bruneval_2015,Jacquemin_2015b,Hirose_2015,Jacquemin_2017a,Jacquemin_2017b,Rangel_2017,Krause_2017,Gui_2018,Blase_2018,Liu_2020,Blase_2020,Holzer_2018a,Holzer_2018b,Loos_2020e,Loos_2021}
Effectively, $GW$ produces accurate ``charged'' excitations and provides a faithful description of the fundamental gap, while the remaining excitonic effect (\ie, the stabilization provided by the attraction of the excited electron and the hole left behind) is caught via BSE, hence producing accurate ``neutral'' excitations.

Interestingly, RPA has strong connections with coupled-cluster (CC) theory, the workhorse of molecular electronic structure is when one is looking for high accuracy. \cite{Freeman_1977,Scuseria_2008,Jansen_2010,Scuseria_2013,Peng_2013,Berkelbach_2018,Rishi_2020}
%At low orders, \eg, coupled-cluster with singles and doubles, CC can treat weakly correlated systems, while when one can afford to ramp up the excitation degree to triplets or quadruples, even strongly correlated systems can be treated, hence eschewing to resort to multireference methods.

As readily seen in Eqs.~\eqref{eq:A_RPAx}, \eqref{eq:B_RPAx}, \eqref{eq:A_BSE} and \eqref{eq:B_BSE}, the only difference between RPAx and BSE lies in the definition of the matrix elements, where one includes, via the screening of the electron-electron interaction [see Eq.~\eqref{eq:W}], correlation effects at the BSE level.
Note also that, within BSE, the orbital energies in Eqs.~\eqref{eq:A_BSE} and \eqref{eq:B_BSE} are usually computed at the $GW$ level to be consistent with the introduction of $W$ in the BSE kernel.
For example, at the one-shot $GW$ level, \cite{Strinati_1980,Hybertsen_1985a,Hybertsen_1986,Godby_1988,Linden_1988,Northrup_1991,Blase_1994,Rohlfing_1995,Shishkin_2007} we have

Therefore, following the derivation detailed in Sec.~\ref{sec:RPAx}, one can show that the BSE correlation energy obtained using the trace formula
\begin{equation}
\Ec^\text{BSE} = \frac{1}{4} \Tr(\bOm{}{\BSE} - \bA{}{\BSE})
\end{equation}
can be obtained via a set of rCCD-like amplitude equations, where one substitutes in Eq.~\eqref{eq:rCCD} the HF orbital energies by the $GW$ quasiparticle energies and all the antisymmetrized two-electron integrals $\dbERI{pq}{rs}$ by $\wERI{pq}{rs} = \dbERI{pq}{rs} - W_{ps,qr}^\text{stat}$, \ie,

with
\begin{equation}
\Delta_{ijab}^{\GW} = \e{a}{\GW} + \e{b}{\GW} - \e{i}{\GW} - \e{j}{\GW}
\end{equation}
Similarly to the diagonalization of the eigensystem \eqref{eq:BSE}, these approximate CCD amplitude equations can be solved with $\order*{N^6}$ cost via the definition of appropriate intermediates.
As in the case of RPAx (see Sec.~\ref{sec:RPAx}), several variants of the BSE correlation energy do exist, either based on the plasmon formula \cite{,Li_2020,Li_2021} or the ACFDT. \cite{Maggio_2016,Holzer_2018b,Loos_2020e}
Following Berkelbach's analysis, \cite{Berkelbach_2018} one can extend the connection to excited states: the EOM treatment (restricted to 1h1p) of the approximate similarity-transformed rCCD Hamiltonian [see \eqref{eq:rCCD-BSE}] provides the same excitation energies as the conventional linear -response equations \eqref{eq:BSE}.
However, there is a significant difference as the BSE involves $GW$ quasiparticle energies [see Eq.~\eqref{eq:A_BSE}], where some of the correlation has been already dressed, while the RPAx equations only involves (undressed) one-electron orbital energies.
In other words, in the spirit of the Brueckner version of CCD, the $GW$ quasiparticles renormalize the bare one-electron energies and can be seen as incorporating mosaic terms. \cite{Scuseria_2008,Scuseria_2013,Berkelbach_2018}
This observation evidences clear similitudes between BSE@$GW$ and the similarity-transformed EOM-CC (STEOM-CC) method introduced by Nooijen, \cite{Nooijen_1997c,Nooijen_1997b,Nooijen_1997a} where one performs a second similarity transformation to partially decouple the 1h determinants from the 2h1p ones in the ionization potential (IP) sector and the 1p determinants from the 1h2p ones in the electron affinity (EA) sector.
At the CCSD level, for example, this is achieved by performing IP-EOM-CCSD (up to 2h1p) and EA-EOM-CCSD (up to 2p1h) calculations prior to the EOM-CC treatment, which can then be reduced to the 1h1p sector thanks to this partial decoupling.
(An extended version of STEOM-CC has been proposed where the EOM treatment is pushed up to 2h2p. \cite{Nooijen_2000})
Following the same philosophy, in the BSE@$GW$ method, one performs first a $GW$ calculation (which corresponds to an approximate and simultaneous treatment of the IP and EA sectors up to 2h1p and 2p1h \cite{Lange_2018,Monino_2022}) in order to renormalize the one-electron energies (see Sec.~\ref{sec:GW} for more details).
Then, a static BSE calculation is performed in the 1h1p sector with a two-body term dressed with correlation stemming from $GW$.
The dynamical version of BSE \cite{Strinati_1988,Rohlfing_2000,Romaniello_2009b,Loos_2020h,Authier_2020,Bintrim_2022} (where the BSE kernel \eqref{eq:W} is explicitly treated as frequency-dependent) takes partially into account the 2h2p configurations.

\section{Connections between $GW$ and CC}
\label{sec:GW}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Because $GW$ is able to capture key correlation effects as illustrated above, it is therefore interesting to investigate if it possible also the recast the $GW$ equations as a set of CC-like equations.
Connections between approximate IP- and EA-EOM-CC schemes and the $GW$ approximation have been already studied in details by Lange and Berkelbach, \cite{Lange_2018} but we believe that the present work proposes a different perspective on this particular subject, as we derive genuine CC equations that do not decouple the 2h1p and 2p1h sectors.
Quite unfortunately, there are several ways of computing $GW$ quasiparticle energies.
For example, at the one-shot $GW$ level, or $G_0W_0$, \cite{Strinati_1980,Hybertsen_1985a,Hybertsen_1986,Godby_1988,Linden_1988,Northrup_1991,Blase_1994,Rohlfing_1995,Shishkin_2007} we have
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:G0W0}
\e{p}{\GW} = \e{p}{\HF} + Z_p \SigC{p}(\omega = \e{p}{\HF})
\e{p}{\GW} = \e{p}{} + \SigC{pp}(\omega = \e{p}{\GW})
\end{equation}
where the elements of the correlation part of the dynamical self-energy are
\begin{equation}
\begin{split}
\SigC{pq}(\omega)
& = \sum_{im} \frac{\sERI{pi}{m} \sERI{qi}{m}}{\omega - \e{i}{\HF} + \Om{m}{\dRPA} - \ii \eta}
& = \sum_{im} \frac{\sERI{pi}{m} \sERI{qi}{m}}{\omega - \e{i}{} + \Om{m}{\dRPA} - \ii \eta}
\\
& + \sum_{am} \frac{\sERI{pa}{m} \sERI{qa}{m}}{\omega - \e{a}{\HF} - \Om{m}{\dRPA} + \ii \eta}
& + \sum_{am} \frac{\sERI{pa}{m} \sERI{qa}{m}}{\omega - \e{a}{} - \Om{m}{\dRPA} + \ii \eta}
\end{split}
\end{equation}
and the renormalization factor is
\begin{equation}
Z_p = \qty[ 1 - \eval{\pdv{\SigC{pp}(\omega)}{\omega}}_{\omega = \e{p}{\HF}} ]^{-1}
\end{equation}
%and the renormalization factor is
%\begin{equation}
% Z_p = \qty[ 1 - \eval{\pdv{\SigC{pp}(\omega)}{\omega}}_{\omega = \e{p}{\HF}} ]^{-1}
%\end{equation}
Therefore, following a similar procedure, one can show that the BSE correlation energy obtained using the trace formula
\begin{equation}
\Ec^\text{BSE} = \frac{1}{4} \Tr(\bOm{}{\BSE} - \bA{}{\BSE})
\end{equation}
can be obtained via a set of rCCD equations, where one substitutes in Eq.~\eqref{eq:rCCD} all the two-electron integrals $\dbERI{pq}{rs}$ by $\dbERI{pq}{rs} - W_{ps,qr}^\text{stat}$.
Similarly to the diagonalization of the eigensystem \eqref{eq:BSE}, these rCCD-based equations can be solved in $\order*{N^6}$ cost, and provides a clear path for the computation of ground- and excited-state properties (such as nuclear gradients) within the BSE framework.
Following Berkelbach's analysis, \cite{Berkelbach_2018} one can extend the connection to excitation energies.
However, there is a significant difference as the BSE involves $GW$ quasiparticle energies [see Eq.~\eqref{eq:A_BSE}], where some of the correlation has been already dressed, while the RPAx equations only involves (undressed) one-electron orbital energies
