We present a complete ab initio analysis of the electron-phonon interaction in the electron-doped monolayer MoS2, a system that is attracting growing interest, specially after the discovery of gate-induced spin-locking superconductivity [1]. Also recently, intriguing renormalized band structure has been observed in this system [2], which calls into question the exact mechanism by which electron-phonon interaction is so effective. Our calculations uncover the exceptional quasiparticle band-splitting structure. Directly connected to the renormalized electron structure, we complement the study by analyzing the nonadiabatic phonon spectrum, where we predict also strong vibrational branch renormalization for some modes. These results are illustrated with the help of simplified model calculations.
