ABSTRACT In this paper, we find a way to give best simultaneous approximation of n arbitrary points in convex sets. First, we in- troduce a special hyperplane which is based on those n points. Then by using this hyperplane, we define best approxi- mation of each point and achieve our purpose. Keywords: Best Approximation; Hyperplane; Best Simultaneous Approximation 1. Introduction boundary of W. In 2.4 lemma of [1] we can see that if K be a convex subset of X. Then each x? X has at most one best ap- proximation in K. In particular, every closed convex subset K of a Hilbert space X has a unique best approximation in K. Also in 4.1 lemma of [1] if K be a convex set and x? X , y0 ? K . Then y0 ? PK ?x? if and only if As we known, best approximation theory has many ap- plications. One of the best results is best simultaneous approximation of a bounded set but this target cannot be achieved easily. Frank Deutsch in [1] defined hyperplanes and gave the best approximation of a point in convex sets. In [3,4] we can see that a hyperplane of an n-dimen- sional space is a flat subset with dimension n ?1. In this paper we try to find best simultaneous ap- proximation of n arbitrary points in convex sets. We say theor
