Abstract

For a wide class of weights, a systematic investigation of the convergence-divergence behavior of Lagrange interpolation is initiated. A system of nodes with optimal Lebesgue constant is found, and for Hermite weights an exact lower estimate of the norm of projection operators isgiven. In the same spirit, the case of Hermite–Fejér interpolation is also considered.
