Matrix functions are a central topic of linear algebra, and problems requiring their numerical approximation appear increasingly often in scientific computing. We review various limited-memory methods for the approximation of the action of a large-scale matrix function on a vector. Emphasis is put on polynomial methods, whose memory requirements are known or prescribed a priori. Methods based on explicit polynomial approximation or interpolation, as well as restarted Arnoldi methods, are treated in detail. An overview of existing software is also given, as well as a discussion of challenging open problems.
