Summary: Among the fastest methods for solving stiff PDE are exponential integrators, which require the evaluation of , where is a negative semidefinite matrix and is the exponential function or one of the related $\sterling $########$${\S}$$###$\copyright \ddot $###$ \sterling $" functions" such as . Building on previous work by Trefethen and Gutknecht, Minchev, $$###$$§$\ddot $###§! #"%$!\ddot '\( and Lu, we propose two methods for the fast evaluation of that are especially useful when shifted systems $£$########$${\S}$$###$©ddot$can be solved efficiently, e.g. by a sparse direct solver. The first method is based on best rational $$###)###$$10132$ddot546$87 approximations to on the negative real axis computed via the Carath\'eodory-Fej\'er procedure. Rather than using $£$optimal poles we approximate the functions in a set of common poles, which speeds up typical computations by a factor of to . The second method is an application of the trapezoid rule on a Talbot-type contour.$
