Estimation and inference in dynamic discrete choice models often relies on approximation to lower the computational burden of dynamic programming. Unfortunately, the use of approximation can impart substantial bias in estimation and results…
We describe an expansion of Legendre polynomials, analogous to the Taylor expansion, to approximate arbitrary functions. We show that the polynomial coefficients in Legendre expansion, therefore the whole series, converge to zero much more…

Having a function $f$ and a set of functionals $\{\mathcal{C}_{n}\}$, $c_n^f \equiv \mathcal{C}_n \left(f\right)$, one can interpret function approximation very generally as a construction of some function $\mathcal{A}_{N}^{f}$ such that…
