Abstract:

Kronrod’s procedure is a method for estimating the error in Gaussian quadrature methods. Padé approximants are formal Gaussian quadrature formulas. In a previous paper, Kronrod’s method was used to obtain estimates of the error in Padé approximation. Using a new interpretation of this procedure and three different expressions of the error of Padé approximants, extensions of the method are obtained. They provide new error estimates for Padé approximants. These estimates are compared.
