Questions in which polynomials (single or several variables) play a key role. It is typically important that this tag is combined with other tags; polynomials appear in very different contexts. Please, use at least one of the top-level tags, such as nt.number-theory, co.combinatorics, ac.commutative-algebra, in addition to it. Also, note the more specific tags for some special types of polynomials, e.g., orthogonal-polynomials, symmetric-polynomials.

Reference request: maximal ratio of different norms of polynomials
For the interval $[-1,1]$, the extremal polynomial is
$$\frac{P_{n}(x)-P_{n+1}(x)}{1-x},$$
where $P_{n}$ is the Legendre polynomials of degree $n$ (with normalization $\int P_{n}^{2}(x)dx=2/(2n+1)$). …

Do Zernike polynomials form an orthogonal basis of $L^2 ( \mathbb{D} )$?
The (complex) Zernike polynomials $V_{n}^{l}(x,y)$, of total degree $n$, with
$|l|\leq n,~n-|l|\text{ even}$, are such that
$$
V_{n}^{l}(x,y)=R_{n}^{l}(\rho)e^{il\varphi},\quad \text{with }x=\rho\cos\varphi … Some details about the Zernike polynomials can be found in Appendix VII of
M. Born, E. …
