A best approximation property of the generalized spline functions.
2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 41A25, 41A36.The purpose of this paper is to present a characterization of a certain Peetre K-functional in Lp[−1,1] norm, for 1 ≤ p ≤ 2 by means of a modulus of smoothness. This modulus is based on the classical one taken on a certain linear transform of the function.
A positive operator A and a closed subspace of a Hilbert space ℋ are called compatible if there exists a projector Q onto such that AQ = Q*A. Compatibility is shown to depend on the existence of certain decompositions of ℋ and the ranges of A and . It also depends on a certain angle between A() and the orthogonal of .
In this note a commutant lifting theorem for vector-valued functional Hilbert spaces over generalized analytic polyhedra in ℂⁿ is proved. Let T be the compression of the multiplication tuple to a *-invariant closed subspace of the underlying functional Hilbert space. Our main result characterizes those operators in the commutant of T which possess a lifting to a multiplier with Schur class symbol. As an application we obtain interpolation results of Nevanlinna-Pick and Carathéodory-Fejér type...
We give an example of a compact set K ⊂ [0, 1] such that the space ℇ(K) of Whitney functions is isomorphic to the space s of rapidly decreasing sequences, and hence there exists a linear continuous extension operator . At the same time, Markov’s inequality is not satisfied for certain polynomials on K.
We compare the yields of two methods to obtain Bernstein type pointwise estimates for the derivative of a multivariate polynomial in a domain where the polynomial is assumed to have sup norm at most 1. One method, due to Sarantopoulos, relies on inscribing ellipses in a convex domain K. The other, pluripotential-theoretic approach, mainly due to Baran, works for even more general sets, and uses the pluricomplex Green function (the Zaharjuta-Siciak extremal function). When the inscribed ellipse method...
