On Padé approximants of Markov-type meromorphic functions

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 = \documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$ \hat \sigma $$\end{document} + 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 fn are simple and asymptotically located at the vertices of a regular m-gon.
