The authors' main claim With respect to the density-functional Kohn-Sham metallic picture, the many-body GW self-energy leads to a ~ 0.2 eV band gap insulator consistent with our STS spectra at 5 K.

We present both theoretical ab initio GW and experimental angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) and scanning tunneling (STS) spectroscopy results on TiSe2. With respect to the density-functional Kohn-Sham metallic picture, the many-body GW self-energy leads to a ~ 0.2 eV band gap insulator consistent with our STS spectra at 5 K. The band shape is strongly renormalized, with the top-of-valence moved towards a circle of points away from \Gamma, arising in a mexican hat feature typical of an excitonic insulator. Our calculations are in good agreement with experiment.

On the other hand, photoemission spectra are consistent with the excitonic insulator scenario [ref] , and the interaction between an exciton condensate and phonons can reproduce the observed atomic displacements in the PLD with good agreement [ref] .
