The diagonal matrix $\boldsymbol{\Omega}$ contains the positive eigenvalues of the RPA problem defined in Eq.~\eqref{eq:full_dRPA} and its elements $\Omega_\nu$ appear in Eq.~\eqref{eq:GW_selfenergy}.
In the Tamm-Dancoff approximation (TDA), one sets $\bB = \bO$ in Eq.~\eqref{eq:full_dRPA} which reduces to a Hermitian eigenvalue problem of the form $\bA \bX = \bX \bOm$ (hence $\bY=0$).

As mentioned above, because of the frequency dependence of the self-energy, solving exactly the quasiparticle equation \eqref{eq:quasipart_eq} is a rather complicated task.
Hence, several approximate schemes have been developed to bypass full self-consistency.
The most popular strategy is the one-shot (perturbative) $G_0W_0$ scheme, where the self-consistency is completely abandoned, and the off-diagonal elements of Eq.~\eqref{eq:quasipart_eq} are neglected.

Assuming a HF starting point, this results in $K$ quasiparticle equations that read
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:G0W0}
\epsilon_p^{\HF} + \Sigma_{pp}(\omega) - \omega = 0,
\end{equation}
where $\Sigma_{pp}(\omega)$ are the diagonal elements of $\bSig$ and $\epsilon_p^{\HF}$ are the HF orbital energies.
The previous equations are non-linear with respect to $\omega$ and therefore have multiple solutions $\epsilon_{p,s}$ for a given $p$ (where the index $s$ is numbering solutions).
The previous equations are non-linear with respect to $\omega$ and therefore have multiple solutions $\epsilon_{p,z}$ for a given $p$ (where the index $z$ is numbering solutions).
These solutions can be characterized by their spectral weight given by the renormalization factor
\begin{equation}
\label{eq:renorm_factor}
0 \leq Z_{p,s} = \qty[ 1 - \eval{\pdv{\Sigma_{pp}(\omega)}{\omega}}_{\omega=\epsilon_{p,s}} ]^{-1} \leq 1.
0 \leq Z_{p,z} = \qty[ 1 - \eval{\pdv{\Sigma_{pp}(\omega)}{\omega}}_{\omega=\epsilon_{p,z}} ]^{-1} \leq 1.
\end{equation}
The solution with the largest weight is referred to as the quasiparticle while the others are known as satellites (or shake-up transitions).
The solution with the largest weight $Z_p \equiv Z_{p,z=0}$ is referred to as the quasiparticle while the others are known as satellites (or shake-up transitions).
However, in some cases, Eq.~\eqref{eq:G0W0} can have two (or more) solutions with similar weights, hence the quasiparticle is not well-defined.
One obvious drawback of the one-shot scheme mentioned above is its starting point dependence.

Therefore, by suppressing this dependence, the static approximation relies on the fact that there is well-defined quasiparticle solutions.
If it is not the case, the self-consistent qs$GW$ scheme inevitably oscillates between solutions with large spectral weights. \cite{Forster_2021}

One can deal with them by introducing \textit{ad hoc} regularizers.
For example, the $\ii\eta$ term in the denominators of Eq.~\eqref{eq:GW_selfenergy}, sometimes referred to as a broadening parameter linked to the width of the quasiparticle peak, is similar to the usual imaginary-shift regularizer employed in various other theories plagued by the intruder-state problem. \cite{Surjan_1996,Forsberg_1997,Monino_2022,Battaglia_2022}.
