Assume ƒ is continuous on the closed disk D 1 : |z| ≤ 1, analytic in |z| ≤ 1, but not analytic on D1 . Our concern is with the behavior of the zeros of the polynomials of best uniform approximation to ƒ on D1. It is known that, for such ƒ, every point of the circle |z| = 1 is a cluster point of the set of all zeros of Here we show that this property need not hold for every subsequence of the Specifically, there exists such an f for which the zeros of a suitable subsequence all tend to infinity. Further, for near-best polynomial approximants, we show that this behavior can occur for the whole sequence. Our examples can be modified to apply to approximation in the Lq -norm on |z|= 1 and to uniform approximation on general planar sets (including real intervals).
