Abstract
We present a stable and efficient Fortran implementation of polynomial interpolation at the Padua points on the square [ − 1,1]2. These points are unisolvent and their Lebesgue constant has minimal order of growth (log square of the degree). The algorithm is based on the representation of the Lagrange interpolation formula in a suitable orthogonal basis, and takes advantage of a new matrix formulation together with the machine-specific optimized BLAS subroutine for the matrix-matrix product. Extension to interpolation on rectangles, triangles and ellipses is also described.

Bivariate Lagrange interpolation at the node points of Lissajous curves - the degenerate case
In this article, we study bivariate polynomial interpolation on the node points of degenerate Lissajous figures. These node points form Chebyshev lattices of rank 1 and are generalizations of the well-known Padua points. We show that these node points ...
Bivariate Lagrange interpolation at the Padua points: Computational aspects
The so-called ''Padua points'' give a simple, geometric and explicit construction of bivariate polynomial interpolation in the square. Moreover, the associated Lebesgue constant has minimal order of growth O(log^2(n)). Here we show four families of ...
The application of Cayley-Bacharach theorem to bivariate Lagrange interpolation
Special issue on proceedings of the international symposium on computational mathematics and applicationsIn this paper, we give a new proof of the famous Cayley-Bacharach theorem by means of interpolation, and deduce a general method of constructing properly posed set of nodes for bivariate Lagrange interpolation. As a result, we generalize the main ...
