The multivariate integer Chebyshev problem is to find polynomials with integer coefficients that minimize the supremum norm over a compact set in $\C^d.$ We study this problem on general sets, but devote special attention to product sets…
We study the problem of minimizing the supremum norm, on a segment of the real line or on a compact set in the plane, by polynomials with integer coefficients. The extremal polynomials are naturally called integer Chebyshev polynomials.…
We study the problem of finding nonconstant monic integer polynomials, normalized by their degree, with small supremum on an interval I. The monic integer transfinite diameter t_M(I) is defined as the infimum of all such supremums. We show…

We consider the problem of maximizing the sum of squares of the leading coefficients of polynomials $P_{i_1}(x),\ldots ,P_{i_m}(x)$ (where $P_j(x)$ is a polynomial of degree $j$) under the restriction that the sup-norm of $\sum_{j=1}^m…
We consider a new multivariate generalization of the classical monic (univariate) Chebyshev polynomial that minimizes the uniform norm on the interval $[-1,1]$. Let $\Pi^*_n$ be the subset of polynomials of degree at most $n$ in $d$…
Chebyshev polynomials of the first and second kind for a set K are monic polynomials with minimal L $\infty$-and L 1-norm on K, respectively. This articles presents numerical procedures based on semidefinite programming to compute these…
The standard well-known Remez inequality gives an upper estimate of the values of polynomials on $[-1,1]$ if they are bounded by $1$ on a subset of $[-1,1]$ of fixed Lebesgue measure. The extremal solution is given by the rescaled Chebyshev…
This paper considers the approximation of a monomial $x^n$ over the interval $[-1,1]$ by a lower-degree polynomial. This polynomial approximation can be easily computed analytically and is obtained by truncating the analytical Chebyshev…
The theory of Chebyshev (uniform) approximation for univariate polynomial and piecewise polynomial functions has been studied for decades. The optimality conditions are based on the notion of alternating sequence. However, the extension the…
We consider the problem of determining the monic integer transfinite diameter for real intervals $I$ of length less than 4. We show that $t_M([0,x])$, as a function in $x>0$, is continuous, therefore disproving two conjectures due to Hare…
We address the problem of the best uniform approximation by linear combinations of a finite system of functions. If the system is Chebyshev and the problem is unconstrained, then the classical Remez algorithm provides a fast and precise…
First we consider the following problem which dates back to Chebyshev, Zolotarev and Achieser: among all trigonometric polynomials with given leading coefficients $a_0,...,a_l,$ $b_0,...,b_l \in \mathbb R$ find that one with least maximum…
We study the solution set to multivariate Chebyshev approximation problem, focussing on the ill-posed case when the uniqueness of solutions can not be established via strict polynomial separation. We obtain an upper bound on the dimension…
We consider Chebyshev polynomials, $T_n(z)$, for infinite, compact sets $\frak{e} \subset \mathbb{R}$ (that is, the monic polynomials minimizing the sup-norm, $\Vert T_n \Vert_{\frak{e}}$, on $\frak{e}$). We resolve a $45+$ year old…
This article is concerned with an extension of univariate Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind to the multivariate setting, where one chases best approximants to specific monomials by polynomials of lower degree relative to the uniform…
