A problem on polynomial fitting

I encounter a problem on the fitting ability of a special class of multi-variable polynomials. To be specific, I need find whether a special class of multi-variable polynomials, denoted by p(m), where m is the number of variables, can universally and exactly fit all member in another special class of multi-variable polynomials q(n), where n is also the number of variables. Note that p(m) and q(n) have different forms, respectively. Might you please give me some hints or references on this problem? Thank you in advance for you kind help.

Btw, I tried to read some materials on nonlinear functional analysis and algebra. But I could not find a relevant reference. Please note that the general result (e.g., Weierstrass-Stone Theorem) seems to be too general to guide this problem since the form of p(m) and q(n) are special, and the m and n are related.

The same can be said about the question. Some class for ##p(m)##, another class for ##q(n)## is simply to vague to develop an idea of what could help, and

isn't of help either.
 
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. In Dirac’s Principles of Quantum Mechanics published in 1930 he introduced a “convenient notation” he referred to as a “delta function” which he treated as a continuum analog to the discrete Kronecker delta. The Kronecker delta is simply the indexed components of the identity operator in matrix algebra Source: https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/what-exactly-is-diracs-delta-function/ by...
Fermat's Last Theorem has long been one of the most famous mathematical problems, and is now one of the most famous theorems. It simply states that the equation $$ a^n+b^n=c^n $$ has no solutions with positive integers if ##n>2.## It was named after Pierre de Fermat (1607-1665). The problem itself stems from the book Arithmetica by Diophantus of Alexandria. It gained popularity because Fermat noted in his copy "Cubum autem in duos cubos, aut quadratoquadratum in duos quadratoquadratos, et...
I'm interested to know whether the equation $$1 = 2 - \frac{1}{2 - \frac{1}{2 - \cdots}}$$ is true or not. It can be shown easily that if the continued fraction converges, it cannot converge to anything else than 1. It seems that if the continued fraction converges, the convergence is very slow. The apparent slowness of the convergence makes it difficult to estimate the presence of true convergence numerically. At the moment I don't know whether this converges or not.
