Abstract
A Chebyshev approximation problem is (usually) a problem of uniform approximation -with respect to a compact set M — of a continuous function f by means of a family of continuous functions. Under certain assumptions such a problem may be reduced locally to the minimization of a function of maximum type, the maximum being taken over a finite set of functions. This will be the subject of the present section.
