Fitting the tail of a Matsubara Green's function
#################################################

API
~~~~~

The tail of a given ``gf<imfreq>/gf<block_index, gf<imfreq>> gw`` can be fitted using the two following functions:

 ``void fit_tail(gf<imfreq> &gf, tail_view known_moments, int n_moments, size_t n_min, size_t n_max, bool replace_by_fit = false);``

 ``void fit_tail(gf<block_index, gf<imfreq>> &block_gf, tail_view known_moments, int n_moments, size_t n_min,  size_t n_max, bool replace_by_fit = false);``

Example
~~~~~~~~

.. triqs_example:: ./fit_tail_0.cpp
Implementation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The fitting problem is written as a linear system of equations, which is solved by SVD.
