Polynomial interpolants defined using Chebyshev extreme points as nodes converge uniformly at a geometric rate when sampling a function that is analytic on an interval. However, the convergence rate can be arbitrarily close to unity if the function has a singularity close to the interval when extended to the complex plane. In such cases, splitting the interval and doing piecewise interpolation may be more efficient in the total number of nodes than the global interpolant. Because the convergence rate is determined by Bernstein ellipses obtained through a Joukowski conformal map, relative efficiency of splitting at any point in the interval can be calculated and then optimized over the interval. The optimal splitting may be applied recursively. The Chebfun software project uses a simple rule of thumb without prior singularity information to create a binary search that can be shown to do an excellent job of finding the optimal splitting in most cases. However, the process can use a large number of intermedi...
