47. Using the distribution identity 1/(x+iε)=P(1/x) -iπsgn(ε)δ(x), where P is the principal-value symbol and ε=E-(Formula presented), one can show that as E tends towards (Formula presented) with either E>(Formula presented) or E<(Formula presented), the value of the right-hand side of Eq. (14) converges to (1/2)tImt[(E+iΓ-(Formula presented))G(E+iΓ)]t-(Γ/π)P(Formula presented)dtRe[((Formula presented)+it -(Formula presented))G((Formula presented)+it)]/((Formula presented)-(Formula presented)). Efficient algorithms exist to calculate principal value integrals [e.g., A. Natarajan and N. Mohankumar, J. Comput. Phys. 116, 365 (1995).
