contents The exploitation of space group symmetries in numerical calculations of periodic crystalline solids accelerates calculations and provides physical insight. We present results for a space-group symmetry adaptation of electronic structure calculations within the finite-temperature self-consistent GW method along with an efficient parallelization scheme on accelerators. Our implementation employs the simultaneous diagonalization of the Dirac characters of the orbital representation. Results show that symmetry adaptation in self-consistent many-body codes results in substantial improvements of the runtime, and that block diagonalization on top of a restriction to the irreducible wedge results in additional speedup.
