A tabular methodology to identify minimal row degrees for matrix Padé approximants (Q390437)

The authors describe a method to find the special types of matrix Padé approximants (MPA) they introduced in a previous paper [J. Comput. Appl. Math. 236, No. 13, 3360--3372 (2012; Zbl 1241.41008)]. Thereby, they address the open question in their 2012 paper of automatically finding all possible sets of so-called minimal row degree MPA's; as stated in the paper, a preliminary version of the Mathematica program can be found at [\url{http://cogonzal.webs.ull.es/Examples.rar}]. It is outside the scope of a review to give the definitions needed to formulate the results in the paper. After a short introduction, Section 2 (2 pages) consists of 8 definitions, followed in Section 3 (nearly 4 pages) by 6 properties of the method and 7 examples. Finally, some remarks are made with respect to the computational aspects, and a possible application in multivariate time series models is discussed.
