A Fekete polynomial is a specific type of polynomial that arises in the context of approximation theory and numerical analysis. It is typically associated with the study of orthogonal polynomials and their properties. Fekete polynomials are named after the Hungarian mathematician A. Fekete. They are used in the context of finding optimal distributions of points, particularly in relation to minimizing the potential energy of point distributions in certain spaces.
