Chebyshev polynomials offer a natural basis for solving polynomial equations. When we switch from monomials to Chebyshev polynomials, we can replace toric varieties with Chebyshev varieties. We will introduce these objects and discuss their main properties, including equations, dimension, and degree. This is an ongoing project with Zaïneb Bel-Afia and Simon Telen.
