Positive interpolation with rational quadratic splines. (English) Zbl 0676.41017

Summary: A necessary and sufficient criterion is presented under which the property of posivity carry over from the data set to rational quadratic spline interpolants. The criterion can always be satisfied if the occuring parameters are properly chosen.
