In [[numerical analysis]], '''transfinite interpolation''' is a means to construct [[Function (mathematics)|functions]] over a planar ___domain in such a way that they match a given function on the boundary. This method is applied in [[geometric model]]ling and in the field of [[finite element method]].

The transfinite interpolation method, first introduced by William J. Gordon and Charles A. Hall,<ref name="Hall73"/>, receives its name due to how a function belonging to this class is able to match the primitive function at a nondenumerable number of points.<ref>{{Citation
