High-Throughput GW Calculations via Machine Learning

Abstract

We present a machine learning (ML) framework that predicts $G_0W_0$ quasiparticle energies across molecular dynamics (MD) trajectories with high accuracy and efficiency. Using only DFT-derived mean-field eigenvalues and exchange-correlation potentials, the model is trained on 25\% of MD snapshots and achieves RMSEs below 0.1 eV. It accurately reproduces k-resolved quasiparticle band structures and density of states, even for BN polymorphs excluded from the training data. This approach bypasses the computational bottlenecks of $G_0W_0$ simulations over dynamic configurations, offering a scalable route to excited-state electronic structure simulations with many-body accuracy.
