Consider a function \(f(z)\), holomorphic in the closed unit disc \(\overline{U}= \{|z|\leq 1\}\). Let \(\{\pi_n\}\), \(n \in \Lambda \subset {\mathbb N}\), be a subsequence of (classical) diagonal Padé approximants to \(f\), constructed at \(z=0\). The author shows that if \(\pi_n\), \(n \in \Lambda\), are holomorphic in \(U\), this sequence converges uniformly to \(f\) at least in the disc \(\{|z|< r\}\), where \(r\) is a solution of the equation \[ g_\Gamma(r,1)=2 g_\Gamma (r,0), \] and \(g_\Gamma(z,a)\) is the Green function of the arc \[ \Gamma =\{e^{i\theta}, \pi/3 \leq \theta \leq 5\pi/3\} \] with pole at \(a\). The method of proof uses standard arguments from potential theory, although the paper is difficult to read due to numerous grammatical errors and misprints.
