Merci Jean-Marc, unfortunately the exponential (Z0 in the following) is 3/2, not 2/3. When one is lucky ... because in the most general case the exponential is a real number (between 1 and 1.5). The function I'm trying to fit with the experimental data (that are supplied in Vgk[[i]] and Vak[[i]]) is is[Vgk_,Vak_,Z0_,G0_,G1_,G2_, G3_,mu0_,mu1_,mu2_,mu3_,H0_,H1_,H2_,H3_]:=(G0+G1 Vgk+G2 Vgk^2+G3 Vgk^3 ) (Vgk+Vak/(mu0+mu1 Vgk+mu2 Vgk^2+mu3 Vgk^3)+H0+H1 Vgk+H2 Vgk^2+H3 Vgk^3)^Z0 It has a lot of parameters, I know, but usually G0>>G1>>G2>>G3 and so on, so I could, in principle, attempt a perturbative approach. Unfortunately I get the same error even if I start from a enough good solution (enough near fit).
