Abstract
We discuss the Siciak–Zakharyuta extremal function of pluripotential theory for the unit ball in ${\mathbb {C}}^d$ for spaces of polynomials with the notion of degree determined by a convex body $P.$ We then use it to analyze the approximation properties of such polynomial spaces, and how these may differ depending on the function $f$ to be approximated.
