Description

The mathematical method of Padé approximants is put forward to reconstruct the Borel transformed series of the correlator triggering either the tau or the Higgs decay and extract higher-order corrections in a model-independent way. The use of the D-log Padé approximants provides valuable information to its analytic structure and yields, together with the standard Padé approximants, reliable model-independent predictions of the higher-order coefficients. Such reconstruction strongly favours the use of fixed-order perturbation theory (FOPT) for the renormalization-scale setting
