Lebesgue functions and Lebesgue constants in polynomial interpolation

Abstract The Lebesgue constant is a valuable numerical instrument for linear interpolation because it provides a measure of how close the interpolant of a function is to the best polynomial approximant of the function. Moreover, if the interpolant is computed by using the Lagrange basis, then the Le...
