<p>the same, there exists a unique polynomial  of degree at most  that interpolates these points, i.e. .</p>

<p>Equivalently, for a fixed choice of interpolation nodes , polynomial interpolation defines a linear <a href="page.php?w=bijection">bijection</a>  between the (n+1)-tuples of real-number values  and the <a href="page.php?w=vector_space">vector space</a>  of real polynomials of degree at most n:</p>

<p>This is a type of <a href="page.php?w=Unisolvent_functions">unisolvence</a> theorem. The theorem is also valid over any infinite <a href="page.php?w=Field_%28mathematics%29">field</a></p><p>
