Our first problem is that of interpolation in prescribed points to a given function by a rational function whose poles are given.
By Theorem 2.3.2., we have that the right-hand side of this equation can be equal to a rational function only if that rational function is equal to zero.

Let #92;mathcal#123;C#125; be the class of continuous maps of #92;mathbb#123;C#125;#95;#92;infty into itself and let #92;mathcal#123;R#125; be the subclass of rational functions.[…]Now #92;mathcal#123;R#125; is a closed subset of #92;mathcal#123;C#125;#95;#92;infty because if the rational functions R#95;n converge uniformly to R on the complex sphere, then R is analytic on the sphere and so it too is rational.
