The Numerical Evaluation of Principal Value Integrals by Finite-Part Integration.
We survey recent results on tractability of multivariate problems. We mainly restrict ourselves to linear multivariate problems studied in the worst case setting. Typical examples include multivariate integration and function approximation for weighted spaces of smooth functions.
A universal optimal in order approximation of a general functional in the space of continuous periodic functions is constructed and its fundamental properties and some generalizations are investigated. As an application the approximation of singular integrals is considered and illustrated by numerical results.
