Padé–biroot correspondence for square-root approximations
Let denote the Padé approximant associated with the square-root expansion at , and let be the square biroot approximation. Set
with . Padé–biroot correspondence. The approximant satisfies
The conjecture proposes that the binomial-coefficient construction underlying the biroot method reproduces the relevant Padé approximants, including the observed correspondence between Newton iterations and Padé approximations for square roots.
