We introduce a new method for estimating determinants or determinant ratios of large matrices, which combines the techniques of Pad\`{e} approximation with rational functions and $Z_{2}$ noise estimation of traces of large matrices. The…
We use the Pad\'e-Z$_2$ stochastic estimator for calculating Tr log M to compute quark loop corrections to quenched QCD. We examine the main source of error in this technique and look at a way of controlling it.
We have applied Pade approximants to perturbative QCD calculations of event shape observables in e+e- --> hadrons. We used the exact O(alpha_s^2) prediction and the [0/1] Pade approximant to estimate the O(alpha_s^3) term for 15…
