Non-commutative Hermite--Padé approximation and integrability

We introduce and solve the non-commutative version of the Hermite-Padé type I approximation problem. Its solution, expressed by quasideterminants, leads in a natural way to a subclass of solutions of the non-commutative Hirota (discrete Kadomtsev--Petviashvili) system and of its linear problem. We also prove integrability of the constrained system, which in the simplest case is the non-commutative discrete-time Toda lattice equation known from the theory of non-commutative Padé approximants and matrix orthogonal polynomials.
