The conference "approximation and extrapolation of convergent and divergentsequences and series" discusses some very old problems of mathematical analysis and modern approaches for their solution based on so-called nonlinear sequence transformations. In spite of all the advances in computer hard and software, slowly convergent or divergentsequences and series are still annoying obstacles not only in mathematics, but in particular also in other mathematically oriented disciplines. This articles tries to give a highly condensed survey of the topics treated at this conference. (C) 2010 IMACS. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

It is shown that the Wynn’s missing identity of Frobenius gives a good practical numerical criterion for the choice of the optimal Padé approximant. The method is illustrated by calculation of divergentseries, numerical interpolation and extrapolation, and can be used as predictor method for numerical solution of ordinary differential equations. The performed numerical experiments reveal that practical realization of the Padé approximants is not problem of the theory of complex functions but belongs to mathematical statistics. A significant correlation between the empirical error extracted by the cross rule by Wynn and the real error reveals that the long sought criterion has already been found. Padé approximants are fast convergent but the noise of rounding requires a compromise. The optimal approximant is determined by modulus minimization of empirical error in the Padé table (N−C)−1+(S−C)−1=εemp−1=(W−C)−1+(E−C)−1 .

The paper reviews the relation between Pade-type approximants of a power series and interpolatory quadrature formulae with free nodes, and between Pade approximants and Gaussian quadrature methods. Then, it is shown how the Kronrod procedure and the anti-Gaussian quadrature methods could be used for estimating the error in Pade approximation. The epsilon-algorithm for accelerating the convergence of sequences, and computing recursively Parte approximants is evoked, and its error estimated by the same procedures. Finally, the case of series of functions is considered. Considerations on further research topics end the paper. (C) 2010 IMACS. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Factorial series played a major role in Stirling's classic book Methodus Differentialis (1730), but now only a few specialists still use them. This article wants to show that this neglect is unjustified, and that factorial series are useful numerical tools for the summation of divergent (inverse) power series. This is documented by summing the divergent asymptotic expansion for the exponential integral E-1 (z) and the factorially divergent Rayleigh-Schrodinger perturbation expansion for the quartic anharmonic oscillator. Stirling numbers play a key role since they occur as coefficients in expansions of an inverse power in terms of inverse Pochhammer symbols and vice versa. It is shown that the relationships involving Stirling numbers are special cases of more general orthogonal and triangular transformations. (C) 2010 IMACS. Published by Elsevier B.V.

The 2 transformation, introduced recently by Wozny and Nowak, may serve as a good tool for summation of slowly convergence series. This approach can be easily applied to the case of generalized or basic hypergeometric series, as well as some orthogonal polynomial expansions. It is closely related to the famous Wynn's epsilon algorithm. Weniger's or Homeier's transformations, and the method introduced by Cizek, Zamastil and Skala. However, it is difficult to use the algorithm proposed by Woiny and Nowak in the general case, because of its high complexity, and some other restrictions. We propose another realization of the 2 transformation, which results in obtaining a simpler and faster algorithm. Four illustrative numerical examples are given. (C) 2010 IMACS.
