Asymptotics of Hermite-Padé polynomials for a set of functions with different branch points

Constructive Approximation Aims and scope

Abstract

For an example where the functions have different branch points we derive the asymptotics of diagonal Hermite-Padé polynomials of type I. The method uses an integral equation obtained by approximating a reproducing kernel. The results are consistent with a new conjecture on the asymptotics of the polynomials associated with more general functions with different branch points.
