We have generalized the Fourier space Hybertson-Louie self- energy approach for quasi-particle energies in semiconductors to cases without inversion symmetry. In the evaluation of the self-energy operator, a complex four-dimensional Fourier space is used to carry out the double Fourier transforms for time and spatial variables independently. The generalized plasmon pole scheme for including both local fields and dynamical effects is also properly extended to systems without inversion center. The quasiparticle energies for GaAs and AlAs are calculated using this approach and results in agreement with experimental data are obtained.
