Symmetric contours and convergent interpolation

Symmetric contours and convergent interpolation

The essence of Stahl-Gonchar-Rakhmanov theory of symmetric contours as applied to the multipoint Padé approximants is the fact that given a germ of an algebraic function and a sequence of rational interpolants with free poles of the germ, if there exists a contour that is “symmetric” with respect to the interpolation scheme, does not separate the plane, and in the complement of which the germ h...

Visual interpolation and extrapolation of contours

Meromorphic Approximation: Symmetric Contours and Wandering Poles

This manuscript reviews the study of the asymptotic behavior of meromorphic approximants to classes of functions holomorphic at infinity. The asymptotic theory of meromorphic approximation is primarily concerned with establishing the types of convergence, describing the domains where this convergence takes place, and identifying its exact rates. As the first question is classical, it is the lat...

The Interpolation of Hydraulic Head Contours

Boundary completion in illusory contours: Interpolation

Most computational and neural-style models of contour completion (ie illusory and occluded contours) are based on interpolation: the filling in of an edge between two visible edges. The results of three experiments suggest an alternative conception, that units are formed as a result of extrapolation from visible edges. In three experiments, subjects reported illusory contours between standard i...
