Title: Multivariate Interpolation with Applications

Abstract: As is well known, univariate interpolation by polynomials is well understood, easy to implement (usually) and has many applications. In the multivariate setting, interpolation by polynomials is far more complicated while the need to interpolate (or almost interpolate) data is very important. In this talk we will discuss how to interpolate data with multivariate polynomials but stress that there are far more effective ways to accomplish this goal. Several applications of multivariate interpolation will be given as well.
