Abstract

The problem is considered of constructing a least-width strip with a polynomial axis that contains the graph of a given continuous segment function. Convex analysis methods are used to obtain a criterion for solving the problem in a form comparable to the Chebyshev alternance. Sufficient conditions for the uniqueness of a solution are given, including those taking into account the differential properties of the segment function to be estimated.
