contents We analytically study the inelastic lifetime of quasiparticles due to particle-particle interactions in a three-dimensional Fermi liquid approaching a density-wave instability. Using the G$_0$W approximation, we find that the softening of the dielectric function significantly enhances the quasiparticle decay rate near the instability. While the zero-temperature quasiparticle lifetime at the Fermi surface generally follows a $|\varepsilon_k-\varepsilon_{\rm F}|^{-α}$ divergence with $α=2$, we observe $α=0.5$ at the instability point and $α=1$ within the density-wave phase. Moreover, we demonstrate that the renormalization constant $Z$ is substantially suppressed as the instability is approached, enhancing the effective mass. We extend our analysis to ultra-cold Rydberg-dressed Fermi liquids, where the soft-core interactions promote density-wave instability, and find that our numerical G$_0$W results are in excellent agreement with our analytic predictions for quasiparticle lifetime, renormalization constant, and effective mass.
