Abstract
A connection between Padé approximants and characteristic polynomial of a matrix with complex, in general, elements is established. A system of homogeneous, first-order ordinary differential equations is associated with the given matrix and after Laplace transform the individual transformed components are shown to be special Padé approximants.
