Abstract

Let AA be a closed affine subspace and let BB be a hyperplane in a Hilbert space. Suppose we are given their associated nearest point mappings PAP_A and PBP_B, respectively. We present a formula for the projection onto their intersection ABA\cap B. As a special case, we derive a formula for the projection onto the intersection of two hyperplanes. These formulas provides useful information even if ABA\cap B is empty. Examples and numerical experiments are also provided.
