Abstract: A precise calculation of the ground-state energy of the complex PT-symmetric Hamiltonian H=p2+1/4x2+ilambdax3, is performed using high-order Rayleigh-Schr"odinger perturbation theory. The energy spectrum of this Hamiltonian has recently been shown to be real using numerical methods. The Rayleigh-Schr"odinger perturbation series is Borel summable, and Pad'e summation provides excellent agreement with the real energy spectrum. Pad'e analysis provides strong numerical evidence that the once-subtracted ground-state energy considered as a function of lambda2 is a Stieltjes function. The analyticity properties of this Stieltjes function lead to a dispersion relation that can be used to compute the imaginary part of the energy for the related real but unstable Hamiltonian H=p2+1/4x2−epsilonx3.
