Let $ f(z)=\int(z-x)^{-1}d\mu(x) $, where $ \mu $ is a Borel measure supported on several subintervals of $ (-1,1) $ with smooth Radon-Nikodym derivative. We study strong asymptotic behavior of the error of approximation $ (f-r_n)(z) $,…

A landmark result from rational approximation theory states that $x^{1/p}$ on $[0,1]$ can be approximated by a type-$(n,n)$ rational function with root-exponential accuracy. Motivated by the recursive optimality property of Zolotarev…

We investigate the question of how well points on a nondegenerate $k$-dimensional submanifold $M \subseteq \mathbb R^d$ can be approximated by rationals also lying on $M$, establishing an upper bound on the "intrinsic Dirichlet exponent"…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of Bessel functions associated of root systems of type $A_{n-1}$ and type $B_n$ with positive multiplicities as the rank $n$ tends to infinity. In both cases, we characterize the possible limit functions…

Let $\rho_{n,m}(f;E)$ denote the error of best uniform rational approximation to a function $f$ analytic on a compact set $E\subset \mathbb{C}$ by rational functions whose numerator and denominator have degrees at most $n$ and $m$,…

Rational best approximations (in a Chebyshev sense) to real functions are characterized by an equioscillating approximation error. Similar results do not hold true for rational best approximations to complex functions in general. In the…

There is a vast theory of the asymptotic behavior of orthogonal polynomials with respect to a measure on $\mathbb{R}$ and its applications to Jacobi matrices. That theory has an obvious affine invariance and a very special role for…

It is a classical result in rational approximation theory that certain non-smooth or singular functions, such as $|x|$ and $x^{1/p}$, can be efficiently approximated using rational functions with root-exponential convergence in terms of…

We establish a uniform approximation result for the Taylor polynomials of the xi function of Riemann which is valid in the entire complex plane as the degree grows. In particular, we identify a domain growing with the degree of the…

We point out that resonance saturation in QCD can be understood in the large-Nc limit from the mathematical theory of Pade Approximants to meromorphic functions. These approximants are rational functions which encompass any saturation with…

We present two algorithms for constructing orthonormal bases of rational function vectors with respect to a discrete inner product, and discuss how to use them for a rational approximation problem. Building on the pencil-based formulation…

We investigate the asymptotic behavior for type II Hermite-Pade approximation to two functions, where each function has two branch points and the pairs of branch points are separated. We give a classification of the cases such that the…
