Calling Sequence

hermite_pade([f1, f2,..., fn], x, N)

hermite_pade([f1, f2,..., fn], x, [d1, d2,..., dn])

hermite_pade([f1, f2,..., fn], x=a, N)

hermite_pade([f1, f2,..., fn], x=a, [d1, d2,..., dn])

Parameters

f1, ..., fn

-

expressions representing the functions to be approximated

x

-

the variable appearing in the f_i's

a

-

the point about which to expand in a series

N

-

non-negative integer

d1, ..., dn

-

degree bounds

Description

• 

The function hermite_pade computes a Hermite-Pade approximation of degree (d1,..., dn) for the functions f1,..., fn with respect to the variable x. When the degrees are not specified, but rather the order N is given, then an approximation of minimal degree is computed.

• 

Specifically, f1,..., fn are expanded in Taylor series about the point x=a (if a is not specified then the expansion is about the point x=0), to order d1+...+dn+n1, and then the Hermite-Pade rational approximation is computed.

• 

The (d1,..., dn) Hermite-Pade approximation is defined to be the list of polynomials p1x,...,pnx with degpixdi such that the Taylor series expansion of p1xf1x+...+pnxfnx has maximal valuation at x=a.

• 

Various levels of user information will be displayed during the computation if infolevel[hermite_pade] is assigned values between 1 and 3.

• 

This code is based on a procedure by H. Derksen in previous versions of the share library.

• 

The command with(numapprox,hermite_pade) allows the use of the abbreviated form of this command.
