Abstract

Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation and moment problems use the analytic structures provided by causality in order to provide rigorous bounds on smeared spectral functions. This proceedings discusses Nevanlinna-Pick interpolation and moment problems and reviews some useful results, including a simple proof that the space of causal data in Nevanlinna--Pick interpolation is convex.
