CAA: Padova-Verona research group on
"Constructive Approximation and Applications"
We have been collaborating since 2005 in the field of Constructive
Approximation and Applications in the broad sense, with a special interest
in the study
and implementation of effective approximation algorithms,
and in the production of reliable numerical software.
The below graffiti, which is part of the mural made on the occasion
of 100 years of Polish Mathematical Union, can be found at the
Department of Mathematics of the Jagellonian University Cracow.
It represents the Approximate Fekete and Leja Points
for polynomial
interpolation of degree 6 on a 270° circular sector,
computed by the methods developed by our group.
