Exact barycentric rational interpolation of analytic functions with an application to the Bessel functions
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: We derive a method of analytic function expansion using barycentric rational interpolation, in which an arbitrary analytic weight function defines the interpolation and nodes. Truncating these expansions yields successive approximations, and the derivation of the expansions gives the approximation error as a byproduct. We demonstrate the method with cosine and the Bessel functions of the first kind for several choices of weight functions, and we examine the accuracy and convergence of the approximate interpolations as a function of the weight and the number of nodes used in the interpolation.
