The Lebesgue constant is a concept from numerical analysis, specifically in the context of interpolation theory. It quantifies the worst-case scenario for how well a given set of interpolation nodes can approximate a continuous function. More formally, if we consider polynomial interpolation on a set of points (nodes), the Lebesgue constant provides a measure of the "instability" of the interpolation process.
