The optical spectrum of V2O3 is found to resemble a Hubbard model syst
em as described in an infinite-dimensional approximation. Assuming the
validity of this comparison, we parameterize the effective Coulomb re
pulsive energy, the bandwith, and the mass enhancement. We suggest imp
licitly that these results should be compared with the cuprate and hea
vy Fermion superconductors.
