Rates of Best Uniform Rational Approximation of Analytic Functions by Ray Sequences of Rational Functions

In this paper, problems related to the approximation of a holomorphic function f on a compact subset E of the complex plane C by rational functions from the class Rn,m of all rational functions of order (n,m) are considered. Let ρn,m = ρn,m( f ; E) be the distance of f in the uniform metric on E from the class Rn,m . We obtain results characterizing the rate of convergence to zero of the sequen...

On Approximation to Analytic Functions by Rational Functions

Let f(z) be analytic in the interior of a rectifiable Jordan curve C and continuous in the corresponding closed region C. The relation between continuity properties of f(z) on C and degree of approximarion to f(z) by polynomials irn(z) in z of respective degrees n, n = 1, 2, • • • , has been extensively studied. In the present paper we study the relation between continuity properties of f(z) on...

The best uniform polynomial approximation of two classes of rational functions

In this paper we obtain the explicit form of the best uniform polynomial approximations out of Pn of two classes of rational functions using properties of Chebyshev polynomials. In this way we present some new theorems and lemmas. Some examples will be given to support the results.

Best Simultaneous Approximation on Small Regions by Rational Functions

We study the behavior of best simultaneous (lq , Lp)-approximation by rational functions on an interval, when the measure tends to zero. In addition, we consider the case of polynomial approximation on a finite union of intervals. We also get an interpolation result.
