Best approximation in normed linear spaces, best uniform approximation of continuous functions, Remez algorithm, the Jackson theorems, the theorems of Bernstein. Least squares approximation based on orthogonal polynomials, approximation of periodic functions. General questions about convergence, convergence of interpolation polynomials. Basics of Korovkin's theory. Rational approximation (interpolations, best approximation, continued fractions, Pade approximation). The course is suitable for students focused on numerical analysis and matrix computations.
