Reliable rational interpolation

Numerische Mathematik Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

A modification of the Thacher-Tukey algorithm for rational interpolation is proposed. The method employed demonstrates the reliability of the proposed algorithm as well as the reliability of the Thacher-Tukey algorithm. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm eliminates almost all the array storage space required to implement the Thacher-Tukey algorithm.
