Summary
In this paper we consider rational interpolation for an Hermite Problem, i.e. prescribed values of functionf and its derivatives. The algorithm presented here computes a solutionp/q of the linearized equationsp−fq=0 in form of a generalized continued fraction. Numeratorp and denominatorq of the solution attain minimal degree compatible with the linearized problem. The main advantage of this algorithm lies in the fact that accidental zeros of denominator calculated during the algorithm cannot lead to an unexpected stop of the algorithm. Unattainable points are characterized.
