I would be less surprised if the paper claimed rational functions instead of polynomials. NN's are ~general non-linear functions which polynomials are very poor at representing (e.g. you can't encode asymptotic behavior in polynomials). edit: here's a paper about rational functions and NN's: https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.03301 . I'm not really in a position to evaluate the claims, but author just won an NSF CAREER award so that's something.

An interesting idea. A paper from last year showed that neural networks and rational functions efficiently approximate one another [1]. [1] https://arxiv.org/abs/1706.03301
