Epsilon-inflation with contractive interval functions

Günter Mayer (1998)

Applications of Mathematics

For contractive interval functions [ g ] we show that [ g ] ( [ x ] ϵ k 0 ) ( [ x ] ϵ k 0 ) results from the iterative process [ x ] k + 1 : = [ g ] ( [ x ] ϵ k ) after finitely many iterations if one uses the epsilon-inflated vector [ x ] ϵ k as input for [ g ] instead of the original output vector [ x ] k . Applying Brouwer’s fixed point theorem, zeros of various mathematical problems can be verified in this way.

Finite difference operators from moving least squares interpolation

Hennadiy Netuzhylov, Thomas Sonar, Warisa Yomsatieankul (2007)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

In a foregoing paper [Sonar, ESAIM: M2AN39 (2005) 883–908] we analyzed the Interpolating Moving Least Squares (IMLS) method due to Lancaster and Šalkauskas with respect to its approximation powers and derived finite difference expressions for the derivatives. In this sequel we follow a completely different approach to the IMLS method given by Kunle [Dissertation (2001)]. As a typical problem with IMLS method we address the question of getting admissible results at the boundary by introducing “ghost...
