Abstract

An algorithm for best approximating in the sup-norm a function f ∈ C[0, 1]2 by functions from tensor-product spaces of the form πk ⊗ C[0, 1] + C[0, 1] ⊗ πl, is considered. For the case k = l = 0 the Diliberto and Straus algorithm is known to converge. A straightforward generalization of this algorithm to general k, l is formulated, and an example is constructed demonstrating that this algorithm does not, in general, converge for k2 + l2 > 0.
