Can a polynomial be evaluated from evaluations of partial interpolations? (Or: can the uniqu...

Formally, let $K$ be a field, $a \in K[x]$, $D \subseteq K$, and $E = \{(x_i, a(x_i)) \mid x_i \in D\}$ be distinct evaluations of $a$ where $\lvert E\rvert > \operatorname{deg}(a)$ (so $E$ uniquely d …
