Approximation of Fractals via Lagrange-type Superoscillations
Abstract
We study the approximation of the Weierstrass function by means of superoscillating sequences. Superoscillatory functions are band-limited functions whose local oscillation rate can exceed the highest frequency contained in their Fourier spectrum. Starting from Lagrange-type interpolation at nodes in , we construct a double-indexed family that approximates the truncated Weierstrass function for each fixed truncation order~. We prove that if the number of interpolation nodes grows sufficiently fast relative to the highest frequency , namely , then converges uniformly to the full Weierstrass function on every compact set. We also show that the two limits in and do \emph{not} commute: for any fixed~ the series diverges for every , a phenomenon called the Divergence Wall.
