There has been renewed interest in the exploitation of Barta's configuration space theorem (BCST, (1937)) which bounds the ground state energy. Mouchet's (2005) BCST analysis is based on gradient optimization (GO). However, it overlooks significant difficulties: (i) appearance of multi-extrema; (ii) inefficiency of GO for stiff (singular perturbation/strong coupling) problems; (iii) the nonexistence of a systematic procedure for arbitrarily improving the bounds. These deficiencies can be corrected by transforming BCST into a moments' representation equivalent, and exploiting a generalization of the Eigenvalue Moment Method (EMM), within the context of the well known Generalized Eigenvalue Problem (GEP), as developed here.
