In the sequel, πn will denote the class of real polynomials of degree at most n and ‖f(x) the L-norm of a function on [–l, +1].

In a series of recent papers, Saff and Varga studied the properties of the so-called incomplete polynomials; that is to say polynomials of the form

where sl and s2 are fixed integers and qπn.

In there, they define the constrained Tchebychev polynomial as being, up to a multiplicative constant, the solution of the following minimization problem
