We introduce the notion of a confluent Vandermonde matrix over quaternions and present the formula to compute its rank. This extends a result of T.Y. Lam (A general theory of Vandermonde matrices, Expo. Math. 4 (3) (1986) 193–215). Another contribution is the representation formula for divided differences of quaternion polynomials which extends a result of G. Gentili and D.C. Struppa (A new theory of regular functions of a quaternionic variable, Adv. Math. 216 (1) (2007) 279–301).

Math. 4 (3) (1986) 193–215). Ensuite, nous montrons une formule de représentation d'ordre supérieur pour les différences divisées de polynômes à coefficients quaternions, généralisant un résultat de G. Gentili et D.C. Struppa (A new theory of regular functions of a quaternionic variable, Adv. Math. 216 (1) (2007) 279–301).
