[UK/US](S) Preface This volume contains the proceedings of the Conference on Rational Approximation and Interpolation, which took place December 12-16, 1983 at the University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida. The conference was held under the auspices of the U.K. - U.S. Cooperative Science Program, an informal agreement between the U.S. National Science Foundation and the U.K. Science and Engineering Research Council to promote and support mutually beneficial scientific activities. The primary purpose of the conference was to bring together pure and applied mathematicians, physicists and engineers to exchange information and set objectives for future research efforts dealing with rational approximation and interpolation. P.R. Graves-Morris and E.B. Saff were the primary organizers of the conference.
There were 28 participants from the U.S., 14 from
the U.K. and 14 others representing 11 additional countries. The number of conference members was kept limited so as to promote discussion among members with diverse backgrounds, in accordance with the aims of the U.K. - U.S. Cooperative Science Program. The contributions to this volume include original research papers as well as a few survey articles. All of these papers were refereed and we are grateful to many advisors for their diligence. It is hoped that this volume reflects the breadth of interest in rational approximation and interpo
