• Resumen

  • We study uniform approximation of differentiable or analytic functions of one or several variables on a compact set K by a sequence of discrete least squares polynomials. In particular, if K satisfies a Markov inequality and we use point evaluations on standard discretization grids with the number of points growing polynomially in the degree, these polynomials provide nearly optimal approximants. For analytic functions, similar results may be achieved on more general K by allowing the number of points to grow at a slightly larger rate.
