A method is presented for forming polynomial interpolants on squares and cubes, which are more efficient in the so-called Euclidean degree than other commonly used methods with the same number of collocation points. These methods have…

In this paper we revisit the classical problem of polynomial interpolation, with a slight twist; namely, polynomial evaluations are available up to a group action of the unit circle on the complex plane. It turns out that this new setting…

In this work, we study the Hermite interpolation on $n$-dimensional non-equally spaced, rectilinear grids over a field $\Bbbk $ of characteristic zero, given the values of the function at each point of the grid and the partial derivatives…

Padua points is a family of points on the square $[-1,1]^2$ given by explicit formulas that admits unique Lagrange interpolation by bivariate polynomials. The interpolation polynomials and cubature formulas based on the Padua points are…

We construct, for every even dimensional sphere $S^n$, $n >1$, and every odd integer $k$, a homogeneous polynomial map $f: S^{n}\to S^{n}$ of Brouwer degree $k$ and algebraic degree $2|k|-1$.

The Apollonius problem asks for a sphere tangent to $n+1$ given spheres or hyperplanes in $\mathbb{R}^n$. This problem has been widely studied for an isolated configuration of $n+1$ spheres. In this paper, we study relations among the…

A systematic construction of higher order splines using two hierarchies of polynomials is presented. Explicit instructions on how to implement one of these hierarchies are given. The results are limited to interpolations on regular,…

We show that among antipodal $2d$-point configurations on the sphere $S^{d-1}$ in $\mathbb R^d$, the set of vertices of a regular cross-polytope inscribed in $S^{d-1}$ uniquely solves the best-covering problem (this is new for $d\geq 5$)…

The classical polynomial interpolation problem in several variables can be generalized to the case of points with greater multiplicities. What is known, as yet, is essentially concentrated in the Alexander-Hirschowitz Theorem which says…

For certain polynomials we relate the number of roots inside the unit circle with the index of a non-degenerate isolated umbilic point on a real analytic surface in Euclidean 3-space. In particular, for $N>0$ we prove that for a certain…

In contrast to the univariate case, interpolation with polynomials of a given maximal total degree is not always possible even if the number of interpolation points and the space dimension coincide. Due to that, numerous constructions for…
