Abstract
A definition of the Hausdorff alternance is given. In its terms we give a sufficient condition for an algebraic polynomial to have minimal deviation from a function f in the Hausdorff α-metric. A condition under which a polynomial Pn is the unique best-approximation polynomial for a function f and a necessary condition for Pn to have minimal deviation from f are given. Similar theorems for 2π-periodic functions are formulated. Bibliography: 3 titles.
