Abstract
In view of physical applications (especially to “QCD Sum Rules”), the following problem, pertaining to analytic extrapolation techniques, is studied. We are considering “amplitudes,” which are (real) analytic functions in the complex plane cut alongΓ=[s 0, ∞). A modelF 0(s) of the amplitude is given through the values ofF 0(s) on some intervalγ=[s 2,s 1] (withs 1<s 0) and the values of its discontinuity onΓ. These values are approximate, and are supplemented by prescribed error channels, measured inL ∞-norm (both onΓ andγ). Investigating the compatibility between these data leads to an extremum problem which is solved up to a point where numerical methods can be implemented.
