A Padé approximation is the use of a ratio of polynomials to approximate a function. This can be seen as a generalization of the Taylor series which can better account for singularities in the function.

How is this method of fitting a Padé approximant to data called?
This website shows an implementation in R that fits a Padé approximant:
$$
R(x)= \frac{\sum_{j=0}^m a_j x^j}{1+\sum_{k=1}^n b_k x^k}=\frac{a_0+a_1x+a_2x^2+\cdots+a_mx^m}{1+b_1 x+b_2x^2+\cdots+b_nx^n}
$$
to some data.
They write the function like…

Pade approximation of $\frac{1-e^{-x}I_0(x)}{x}$
I need to expand $\frac{1-e^{-x}I_0(x)}{x}$ in Pade approximation. The answer should be $\frac{1}{1+x}$. But I'm not sure how to reach the answer.
Here $I_0(x)$ is modified Bessel function of order 0 and is given by $$I_0(x)=\sum_{s=0}^\infty…

How to compute the pade approximation?
After getting to the point where you solve a system of linear equations:
$$p_0 = a_0q_0\\p_1 = a_1q_0+a_0q_1\\ \ldots \\p_m = a_mq_0+a_{m-1}q_1+ \,\ldots…

How to calculate two-point Padé approximant?
Wikipedia mentions two-point Padé approximant. I don't have access to the reference provided (Yoshiki Ueoka, Introduction to multipoints summation...).
I checked also chapter 8 (The N-Point Padé Approximants) in the George A. Baker's Esssentials of…

Pade Approximation of $\sin(x)$
So I am trying to get a polynomial approximation for $\sin(x)$ using Pade approximation for $n = 2$ and $m = 3$ and the Maclaurin series $(\deg 5)$ for
$$\sin(x) = x - \frac{x^3}{3!} + \frac{x^5}{5!}$$
However, the matrix I am getting seems to be…

How are these equations derived?
In the below snippet, the equations are listed that need to be used to solve for the Padé approximant. How are these equations derived? I get they want the derivatives to be equal at zero, but I don't see how those equations follow from that…

Is it possible to find the Padé approximation for $\ln{(1+x)}$?
On the Padé approximant wiki, people present various form of padre approximant for $\sin{(x)}, \exp{(x)}$, erf$(x)$ but does not provide instruction on how to create them.
What would be the correct way to find the Padé approximant for $\ln{(1+x)}$…
