Abstract

In practical computation of the discrete best uniform approximation, we usually only get “near best” (i.e., with the “ε-near alteration property”) approximation. We need to estimate the error between the (unknown) best approximation and the achieved approximation. In this paper we estimate the parameter error by means of the generalized strong unicity constants.
