Abstract
In this dissertation we consider the minimax approximation of functions f(x) E"C[O, l] rotated about the origin, and the characterization of the optimal rotation, a*, of f in the sense of least minimax error over all possible rotations. The paper divides naturally into two sections: a) Existence, uniqueness, and characterization for unisolvent minimax approximation for each rotation a of f. These results are applications of Dunham (1967). b) Existence, non-uniqueness, and com.putation of a*; derivation of necessary conditions for the minimax [TRUNCATED]
