Similarly, in several variables the maximum of the absolute value of a polynomial $P(x)$ of degree $d$ on the unit cube $Q^n_1 \\subset {\\mathbb R}^n$ can be bounded through the maximum of its absolute value on any subset $Z\\subset Q^n_1$ of positive $n$-measure. The main result of this paper is that the $n$-measure in the Remez inequality can be replaced by a certain geometric invariant $\\omega_d(Z)$ which can be effectively estimated in terms of the metric entropy of $Z$ and which may be nonzero for discrete and even finite sets $Z$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2009-11-10T16:21:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "remez-type inequality", "discrete sets", "absolute value", "classical remez inequality bounds", "finite sets" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2009arXiv0911.1937Y" } } }
