Abstract

The paper is devoted to the asymptotic properties of diagonal Padé approximants for Markov-type meromorphic functions. The main result is strong asymptotic formulas for the denominators of diagonal Padé approximants for Markov-type meromorphic functions f = \( \hat \sigma \) + r under additional constraints on the measure σ (r is a rational function). On the basis of these formulas, it is proved that, in a sufficiently small neighborhood of a pole of multiplicity m of such a meromorphic function f, all poles of the diagonal Padé approximants f n are simple and asymptotically located at the vertices of a regular m-gon.
