Numerische Mathematik Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

A special type diagonal Padé approximation for a class of hermitian power series in two variables is related to a canonical strong-operator topology, finite-rank approximation of cyclic operators. The expected convergence of the process (uniform or in measure) is derived from operator theory facts.
