= Polynomial reproduction error bound
{title2=$\|f-Pf\|\le(1+\|P\|)E_V(f)$}

If a bounded <linear map> $P$ reproduces every element of an approximating polynomial space $V$, then $f-Pf=(f-v)-P(f-v)$ for every $v\in V$. The triangle inequality and infimum over $v$ prove the displayed error bound. The same argument works for any linear approximating space, and applies in particular to <de la Vallée Poussin sums>.
