Abstract: | We present a general formalism for deriving bounds on the shape parameters of the weak and electromagnetic form factors using
as input correlators calculated from perturbative QCD, and exploiting analyticity and unitarity. The values resulting from
the symmetries of QCD at low energies or from lattice calculations at special points inside the analyticity domain can be
included in an exact way. We write down the general solution of the corresponding Meiman problem for an arbitrary number of
interior constraints and the integral equations that allow one to include the phase of the form factor along a part of the
unitarity cut. A formalism that includes the phase and some information on the modulus along a part of the cut is also given.
For illustration we present constraints on the slope and curvature of the Kl3 scalar form factor and discuss our findings in some detail. The techniques are useful for checking the consistency of various
inputs and for controlling the parameterizations of the form factors entering precision predictions in flavor physics. |
