Indeed, it has been previously mentioned that intruder states are responsible for both the poor convergence of qs$GW$ and discontinuities in physical quantities. \cite{Loos_2018b,Veril_2018,Loos_2020e,Berger_2021,DiSabatino_2021,Monino_2022,Scott_2023}
Is it then possible to rely on the SRG machinery to remove discontinuities?
Not directly because discontinuities are due to intruder states in the dynamic part of the quasiparticle equation.
However, as we have seen just above the functional form of the renormalized equation \ant{makes it possible to choose $s$ such that there is no intruder states in its static part.}

However, as we have seen just above the functional form of the renormalized equation makes it possible to choose $s$ such that there is no intruder states in its static part.
Performing a bijective transformation of the form,

e^{- \Delta s} &= 1-e^{-\Delta t},
\end{align}
on the renormalized quasiparticle equation \eqref{eq:GW_renorm} reverses the situation and \ant{makes it possible to choose $t$ such that there is no intruder states in the dynamic part, hence removing discontinuities.}

Note that, after this transformation, the form of the regularizer is actually closely related to the SRG-inspired regularizer introduced by Monino and Loos in Ref.~\onlinecite{Monino_2022}.

The maximum size of the DIIS space \cite{Pulay_1980,Pulay_1982} and the maximum number of iterations were set to 5 and 64, respectively.
In practice, one may achieve convergence, in some cases, by adjusting these parameters or by using an alternative mixing scheme.
However, in order to perform black-box comparisons, these parameters have been fixed to these default values.
The $\eta$ value has been set to \num{e-3} for the conventional $G_0W_0$ \ant{(without linearization of the quasiparticle equation)} calculations while, for the qs$GW$ calculations, $\eta$ has been chosen as the largest value where one successfully converges the 50 systems composing the test set.

The various $GW$-based sets of values are compared with a set of reference values computed at the $\Delta$CCSD(T) level with the same basis set.
The $\Delta$CCSD(T) principal ionization potentials (IPs) and electron affinities (EAs) have been obtained using \textsc{gaussian 16} \cite{g16} with default parameters within the restricted and unrestricted HF formalism for the neutral and charged species, respectively.

As mentioned previously the HF approximation overestimates the IPs with a mean signed error (MSE) of \SI{0.56}{\eV} and a mean absolute error (MAE) of \SI{0.69}{\eV}.
Performing a one-shot $G_0W_0$ calculation on top of this mean-field starting point, $G_0W_0$@HF, reduces by more than a factor two the MSE and MAE, \SI{0.29}{\eV} and \SI{0.33}{\eV}, respectively.

For example, the IP of \ce{N2} is overestimated by \SI{1.56}{\eV}, a large error that is due to the HF starting point.
Self-consistency can mitigate the error of the outliers as the MAE at the qs$GW$ level is now \SI{0.57}{\eV} and the standard deviation of the error (SDE) is decreased from \SI{0.31}{\eV} for $G_0W_0$ to \SI{0.18}{\eV}.
In addition, the MSE and MAE (\SI{0.23}{\eV} and \SI{0.25}{\eV}, respectively) are also slightly improved with respect to $G_0W_0$@HF.
