Abstract

We use a multiply-subtracted Omnes dispersion relation for the form factor f+ in B->pi semileptonic decay, allowing the direct input of experimental and theoretical information to constrain its dependence on q2. Apart from these inputs we use only unitarity and analyticity properties. We obtain |V(ub)|=(4.02 0.35)× 10-3, improving the agreement with the value determined from inclusive methods, and competitive in precision with them.
