Abstract:
The problem of the limiting distribution of the zeros and the asymptotic behaviour of the Hermite–Padé polynomials of the first kind is considered for a system of germs $[1,f_{1,\infty},\dots,f_{m,\infty}]$ of meromorphic functions $f_j$, $j=1,\dots,m$, on an $(m+1)$-sheeted Riemann surface ${\mathfrak R}$. Nuttall's approach to the solution of this problem, based on a particular ‘Nuttall’ partition of ${\mathfrak R}$ into sheets, is further developed.
