Homogeneous Polynomial


A homogeneous polynomial is a polynomial whose nonzero monomials have the same total degree. For example, x^3+xyz+y^2z+z^3 is a homogeneous polynomial of total degree 3.

Homogeneous polynomials also approximate functions on convex boundaries, as in the Kroó homogeneous polynomial approximation conjecture.
