Abstract: In this work we prove optimal $W^{s,p}$-approximation estimates (with $pin[1,+infty]$) for elliptic projectors on local polynomial spaces. The proof hinges on the classical Dupont--Scott approximation theory together with two novel abstract lemmas: An approximation result for bounded projectors, and an $L^p$-boundedness result for $L^2$-orthogonal projectors on polynomial subspaces. The $W^{s,p}$-approximation results have general applicability to (standard or polytopal) numerical methods based on local polynomial spaces. As an illustration, we use these $W^{s,p}$-estimates to derive novel error estimates for a Hybrid High-Order discretization of Leray--Lions elliptic problems whose weak formulation is classically set in $W^{1,p}(Omega)$ for some $pin(1,+infty)$. This kind of problems appears, e.g., in the modelling of glacier motion, of incompressible turbulent flows, and in airfoil design. Denoting by $h$ the meshsize, we prove that the approximation error measured in a $W^{1,p}$-like discrete norm scales as $h^{frack+1p-1}$ when $pge2$ and as $h^{(k+1)(p-1)}$ when $p<2$.
