Abstract: In this paper the error of polynomial interpolation of degree 1 on triangles is considered. The circumradius condition, which is more general than the maximum angle condition, is explained and proved by the technique given by Babuv{s}ka-Aziz.

Review text

Bivariate approximations by piecewise linear polynomial approximation/interpolation are analysed. The Babuška conditions of maximum angle are considered and error estimates derived.
