The set \(F\) of real functions defined on the interval \(I\subseteq \mathbb{R}\) is called \(n-\)unisolvent if for any set of distinct points \(x_1,\dots,x_n\in I\) and any set of real numbers \(y_1,\dots,y_n\) there is a uniquely determined \(f\in F\) such that \(f(x_i)=y_i\), \(i=1,\dots,n\). The author constructs from two \(n-\)unisolvent sets \(F_1, F_2\) new \(n\)-unisolvent sets, in the case when is given a common \((n-1)\)-unisolvent subset \(H\) of \(F_1\) and \(F_2\). The construction is based on the separating property of \(H\) between the so called convex and concave functions with respect to \(H,\) defined by \textit{E. Moldovan} [Mathematica, Cluj 1, 49-80 (1959; Zbl 0098.26601)]. One obtains also an \((n-1)\)-unisolvent subset of an \(n\)-unisolvent set. These constructions can be used for the study of the geometry of surfaces.
