Abstract
We study existence and uniqueness problems associated with different definitions of rational interpolants with free or prescribed poles. The treatment of the subject is rather general; it includes interpolation at infinity, at confluent points, and interpolation in polar singularities.
The paper was written while the author was visiting the Institute for Constructive Mathematics at the University of South Florida. Tampa.
