- A multipoint Padë approximant, R, to a function of Stieltjes1 type is determined.The function R has numerator of degree n-l and denominator of degree n.The 2n interpolation points must belong to the region where f is analytic,and if one non-real point is amongst the interpolation points its complex-conjugated point must too.The problem is to characterize R and to find some convergence results as n tends to infinity. A certain kind of continued fraction expansion of f is used.From a characterization theorem it is shown that in each step of that expansion a new function, g, is produced; a function of the same type as f. The function g is then used,in the second step of the expansion,to show that yet a new function of the same type as f is produced. After a finite number of steps the expansion is truncated,and the last created function is replaced by the zero function.It is then shown,that in each step upwards in the expansion a rational function is created; a function of the same type as f.From this it is clear that the multipoint Padê approximant R is of the same type as f.From this it is obvious that the zeros of R interlace the poles, which belong to the region where f is not analytical.Both the zeros and the poles are simple. Since both f and R are functions of Stieltjes ' type the theory of Hardy spaces can be applied (p less than one ) to show some error formulas.When all the interpolation points coincide ( ordinary Padé approximation) the expected error formula is attained. From the error formula above it is easy to show uniform convergence in compact sets of the region where f is analytical,at least wien the interpolation points belong to a compact set of that region.Convergence is also shown for the case where the interpolation points approach the interval where f is not analytical,as long as the speed qî approach is not too great.
