Abstract:

This note considers an aspect of the simultaneous exchange algorithm for Chebyshev approximation by interpolating rationals. An example has been given by Dunham claiming to show that this algorithm may fail to produce an interpolating rational approximant. In this note we show that his example cannot occur as a step of the exchange algorithm. A second example is given where Dunham’s objection to the algorithm is valid.
