National Mathematics Colloquium
UNION OF BULGARIAN MATHEMATICIANS INSTITUTE OF MATHEMATICS AND INFORMATICS, BULGARIAN ACADEMY OF SCIENCES NATIONAL MATHEMATICS COLLOQUIUM The next meeting of the National Mathematics Colloquium will be held on November 19, 2025 (Wednesday) at 4:15 pm EET (UTC +2) in the Conference Room of IMI - BAS. A talk on: Birkhoff Interpolation Problem: Some Old and New Results will be delivered by Prof. Geno Nikolov, Faculty of Mathematics and Informatics, Sofia University. Abstract. In 1906 George David Birkhoff formulated a general interpolation problem for algebraic polynomials (hereafter called BIP). BIP is defined in terms of incidence matrices and encompasses as particular cases the classical Lagrange and Hermite interpolation problems. In contrast with the classical cases, the general BIP is not always solvable. Despite studied by [...]
