Sum-Rule Inequalities and a Toy Model Paradox

Fundamental inequalities for QCD sum-rules are applied to resolve a paradox recently encountered in a sum-rule calculation. This paradox was encountered in a toy model known to be free of resonances that yields an apparent resonance using a standard sum-rule stability analysis. Application of the inequalities does not support the existence of a well defined sum-rule calculation, and shows a strong distinction from typical behaviour in QCD.
