Abstract
We survey some recent results in the theory of multivariate piecewise polynomial approximation. In the univariate case this method is equivalent to Wavelet approximation, but in the multivariate case this is no longer true, since this form of approximation is more adaptive to the geometry of the singularities of the function to be approximated. The theory possibly has applications in image compression.
