Convergence of exponential sums

that interpolate to Laplace transforms

(1.1)

have been studied by several authors [3, 6, 8, 15]. For rational functions that interpolate to Markov functions (also called Hamburger or Stieltjes Series or Hilbert Transforms)

(1.2)

far more detailed convergence results are available (see [10, 11, 16] and references therein). Both (1.1) and (1.2) are special cases of the transform

(1.3)

where K(x, t) is a strictly totally positive kernel.
