In this paper, we use an extremal problem involving rational functions to derive explicit bounds on the singular values of such matrices. For example, we show that the $k$th singular value of a real $n\\times n$ positive definite Hankel matrix, $H_n$, is bounded by $C\\rho^{-k/\\log n}\\|H\\|_2$ with explicitly given constants $C>0$ and $\\rho>1$, where $\\|H_n\\|_2$ is the spectral norm. This means that a real $n\\times n$ positive definite Hankel matrix can be approximated, u"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1609.09494","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
