Approximating the pth root by composite rational functions

A landmark result from rational approximation theory states that x 1/p on [0, 1] can be approximated by a type-(n, n) rational function with root-exponential accuracy. Motivated by the recursive optimality property of Zolotarev functions (for the square root and sign functions), we investigate appro...
