. The theory of difference equations, the methods used in their solutions and their wide applications have advanced beyond their adolescent stage to occupy a central position in Applicable Analysis. In fact, in the last five years, the proliferation of the subject is witnessed by hundreds of research articles and several monographs, two International Conferences and numerous Special Sessions, and a new Journal as well as several special issues...

Given a function x(t) E c{n) [a, bj, points a = al < a2 < . . . < ar = b and subsets aj of {0, 1, "', n -1} with L:j=lcard(aj) = n, the classical interpolation problem is to find a polynomial P - (t) of degree at most (n - 1) n l such that P~~l(aj) = x{i)(aj) for i E aj, j = 1, 2, " r. In the first four chapters of this monograph we shall consider respectively the cases: the Lidstone interpolation (a = 0, b = 1, n = 2m, r = 2, al = a2 = {a, 2"...
