Some new results concerning tubular sets are presented, with applications to the convergence of the Polya algorithm in the contexts of simultaneous approximation and approximation of multivariate functions by univariate functions. (The Polya algorithm constructs a best uniform approximation from the limit, as p → ∞, of best Lp approximations.)
