Multivariate Padé approximants to a meromorphic function (Q5948565)

The author studies multivariate Padé approximation for the functions \[ G_q(x,y): =\sum^\infty_{j=1} {1\over xy+q^j x+q^{2j}} \] with complex parameters \(q\) of modulus \(>1\). For positive integers \(m\) and \(n\) with \(m\geq 2n+4\) he finds an explicit representation of the \((M,N)\) multivariate Padé approximant to \(G_q\) with respect to the interpolation set \(E\), where \[ \begin{aligned} N & =\bigl\{ (i,j)\in\mathbb{N}^2_0: i,j\leq 2n\bigr\}\\ M & =N\cup\bigl\{ (i,j)\in \mathbb{N}^2_0: i+j\leq m-2\bigr\} \end{aligned} \] and \[ E=\bigl\{(i,j) \in\mathbb{N}^2_0: i+j \leq m+2n-2 \bigr\}. \] Moreover, for fixed \(n\) and \(m\to\infty\) he proves locally uniform convergence of the \((M,N)\) approximants to \(G_q\) on the set \(B\setminus S\) where \[ B=\bigl\{ (x,y):0<|x|,|y|<|q |^n\bigr\} \] and \[ S=\left\{ (x,y):\prod^{2n-1}_{j=0} (xy+q^{n-j} x+q^{2n-2j})= 0\right\} \cup \bigl\{(0,0) \bigr\}. \]
