Linear interpolation and Sobolev orthogonality (Q1040853)

The authors study the connection between Sobolev orthogonality and simultaneous best approximation and interpolation on a certain Sobolev space. They give a symmetric bilinear form on the linear space of real polynomials and they study the relation between the orthogonal polynomials associated with this discrete continuous bilinear form and the orthogonal polynomials associated with a regular linear functional on the set of real valued polynomials in one real variable.
