The main purpose of this paper is to prove some density results of polynomials in Fock spaces of slice regular functions. The spaces can be of two different kinds since they are equipped with different inner products and contain different…
Our goal is to identify the type and number of static equilibrium points of solids arising from fine, equidistant $n$-discretrizations of smooth, convex surfaces. We assume uniform gravity and a frictionless, horizontal, planar support. We…
Numerical solutions of differential equations are usually not smooth functions. However, they should resemble the smoothness of the corresponding real solutions in one way or another. In two of our recent papers, a kind of spacial…

Suppose that a continuous on the real axis $2\pi$-periodic function $f$ changes its convexity at $2s,\ s\in\Bbb N,$ points $y_i$ on each period: $-\pi\le y_{2s}<y_{2s-1}<...<y_1<\pi,$ and for the rest $i\in\Bbb Z,$ the points $y_i$ are…

Exact Jackson-type inequalities are obtained in terms of best approximations and averaged values of generalized moduli of smoothness in the spaces ${\mathcal S}^p$. The values of Kolmogorov, Bernstein, linear, and projective widths in the…

Recent analysis of the divergence constraint in the incompressible Stokes/Navier--Stokes problem has stressed the importance of equivalence classes of forces and how it plays a fundamental role for an accurate space discretization. Two…
This paper considers the problem of smoothing convex functions and sets, seeking the nearest smooth convex function or set to a given one. For convex cones and sublinear functions, a full characterization of the set of all optimal…
In this paper we provide a priori error estimates in standard Sobolev (semi-)norms for approximation in spline spaces of maximal smoothness on arbitrary grids. The error estimates are expressed in terms of a power of the maximal grid…
In this article, we have introduced (p;q)-variant of Stancu-Schurer operators and discussed the rate of convergence for continuous functions. We have also discussed recursive estimates Korovkin and direct approximation results using second…
The maximum function, on vectors of real numbers, is not differentiable. Consequently, several differentiable approximations of this function are popular substitutes. We survey three smooth functions which approximate the maximum function…
We study the problem of finding the "smoothest'' local average of a function $f \in \ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$ when we consider its convolution with suitable kernels $u$. The measurement of smoothness is as follows: Given a positive integer $k$,…
We consider optimization algorithms that successively minimize simple Taylor-like models of the objective function. Methods of Gauss-Newton type for minimizing the composition of a convex function and a smooth map are common examples. Our…
