27 Modified analytic optimization problem Problem 3: From the conditions R 1 ρ(t) F(t) π dt I t in and arg[f(t + iǫ) = δ(t), t + t t in find constraints on the derivatives F (k) (t j ) and the values F(t n) I determined from Okubo s method and data below t in, or from data above t in Steps of the proof: Define the Omnès function (for t > t in, δ(t) arbitrary smooth function): Z! t δ(t ) O(t) = exp dt π t + t (t t) Define the function h(t) by F(t) = O(t)h(t), with the properties: h(t) is real below t in, i.e. is analytic in the t-plane cut only for t > t in R 1 ρ(t) O(t) π 2 h(t) 2 dt I t in for h(t) we obtained Problem 1, with two modifications: the t-plane cut for t > t + is replaced by the t-plane cut for t > t in the weight ρ(t) is replaced by ρ(t) O(t) 2

29 Properties of the bounds Rigorous properties: are independent of the conformal mapping (the parameter t 0 ) and the arbitrary phase δ(t) for t > t in remain the same if the sign is replaced by the equality sign depend in a monotonous way on I: larger I, weaker constraints
30 Properties of the bounds Rigorous properties: are independent of the conformal mapping (the parameter t 0 ) and the arbitrary phase δ(t) for t > t in remain the same if the sign is replaced by the equality sign depend in a monotonous way on I: larger I, weaker constraints Related problems: Nevanlinna-Pick and Schur-Carathéodory interpolation for bounded functions F L sup t>t + F(t) I The bounds in L -norm are stronger than those based in L 2 -norm By varying ρ(t), we can approach the stronger bounds given by the L -norm hints for a suitable choice of ρ(t): compromise between choices leading to strong bounds need to exploit properly the available knowledge of the modulus
31 Particular consequence: domains without zeros The formalism predicts domains in the t-plane where zeros are excluded Insert the assumption F(t c)=0 in the determinant along with other input values If the consistency inequality is violated, the zero is excluded rigorous description of the domains where zeros are forbidden Example: given the input values F(0), F (0) and F(t 1 ), the domain of points t c = t(z c, t 0 ) where zeros of F(t) are excluded is defined by the inequality I g 2 0 g2 1 g 0 g 1 z c g(z 1 ) g 0 g 1 z 1 g 0 g 1 z c z 4 c 1 z 2 c (z cz 1 ) 2 1 z cz 1 g(z 1 ) g 0 g 1 z 1 (z 0 z 1 ) 2 1 z 0 z 1 (z 1 ) 4 1 z 2 1 < 0 The knowledge of zeros is important for testing symmetry properties and as input in some dispersive representations

72 Summary and conclusions The availability of a reliable bound on an integral involving the square of the modulus of a form factor on the unitarity cut allows one to: constrain the form factor shape parameters at low energy isolate domains in the complex plane where zeros are excluded find bounds at intermediate spacelike regions and test the onset of perturbative QCD control the truncation error of analytic parametrizations The knowledge of the phase along a part of the unitarity cut considerably improves the results Precise values at points inside the analyticity domain (from ChPT, lattice, experiment) crucial for improving the predictions
