The classical Remez inequality ([33]) bounds the maximum of the absolute value of a real polynomial P of degree d on [−1, 1] through the maximum of its absolute value on any subset Z ⊂ [−1, 1] of positive Lebesgue measure. Extensions to several variables and to certain sets of Lebesgue measure zero, massive in a much weaker sense, are available (see, e.g., [14,39,8]-norming sets are exactly those not contained in any algebraic hypersurface of degree d in R n , there are many apparently unrelated reasons for Z ⊂ [−1, 1] n to have this property.)In the present paper we study norming sets and related Remez-type inequalities in a general setting of finite-dimensional linear spaces V of continuous functions on [−1, 1] n , remaining in most of the examples in the classical framework. First, we discuss some sufficient conditions for Z to be V -norming, partly known, partly new, restricting ourselves to the simplest non-trivial examples. Next, we extend the Turan-Nazarov inequality for exponential polynomials to several variables, and on this base prove a new fewnomial Remez-type inequality. Finally, we study the family of optimal constants N V (Z) in the Remez-type inequalities for V , as the function of the set Z, showing that it is Lipschitz in the Hausdorff metric.
