The implications for what we can do numerically are enormous. This talk will outline the algorithm and demonstrate its application to a collection of problems. We can also use it to demonstrate the potential theory that underlies the theory of rational approximation, a topic that goes back to Joseph Walsh at Harvard nearly a century ago.
