We study properties of ridge functions $f(x)=g(a\cdot x)$ in high dimensions $d$ from the viewpoint of approximation theory. The considered function classes consist of ridge functions such that the profile $g$ is a member of a univariate…

Traditional measures of smoothness often fail to provide accurate $L_p$-error estimates for approximation by sampling or interpolation operators, especially for functions with low smoothness. To address this issue, we introduce a modified…

Rademacher's Theorem can be interpreted as an almost-everywhere \emph{little-$o$ improvement principle}: if a function admits a uniform pointwise first-order Lipschitz control at every point, then this control improves to a vanishing one at…

We consider approximation by functions with finite support and characterize its approximation spaces in terms of interpolation spaces and Lorentz spaces.

Motivated by applications for simulating quantum many body functions, we propose a new universal ansatz for approximating anti-symmetric functions. The main advantage of this ansatz over previous alternatives is that it is bi-Lipschitz with…

From a sufficiently large point sample lying on a compact Riemannian submanifold of Euclidean space, one can construct a simplicial complex which is homotopy-equivalent to that manifold with high confidence. We describe a corresponding…

It is known that a subharmonic function of finite order $\rho$ can be approximated by the logarithm of the modulus of an entire function at the point $z$ outside an exceptional set up to $C\log|z|$. In this article we prove that if such an…

Let $X$ be a normed space of a finite dimension at least two, and $C\subsetneq X$ a closed convex set with nonempty interior. We are interested in extending Lipschitz quasiconvex functions on $C$ to quasiconvex functions on $X$. We show…

Under the right conditions on a compact metric space $X$ and on a Banach space $E$, we give a description of the $2$-local (standard) isometries on the Banach space $\hbox{Lip}(X,E)$ of vector-valued Lipschitz functions from $X$ to $E$ in…

Let $L$ be an elliptic differential operator with bounded measurable coefficients, acting in Bochner spaces $L^{p}(R^{n};X)$ of $X$-valued functions on $R^n$. We characterize Kato's square root estimates $\|\sqrt{L}u\|_{p} \eqsim \|\nabla…

We generalize a classical result by A.Macintyre and W.Rogosinski on best $H^p$--approximation in $L^p$ of rational functions. For each inner function $\theta$ we give a description of $H^p$--badly approximable functions in $\bar \theta…

The piecewise-concave function may be used to approximate a wide range of other functions to arbitrary precision over a bounded set. In this short paper, this property is proven for three function classes: (a) the multivariate twice…

Let $T$ be a compact, metrisable and strongly countable-dimensional topological space. Let $\mathcal{M}^T$ be the set of all metrics $d$ on $T$ compatible with its topology, and equip $\mathcal{M}^T$ with the topology of uniform…

Let $X$ be a WCG Banach space admitting a $C^k$-Fr\' echet smooth norm. Then $X$ admits an equivalent norm which is simultaneously $C^1$-Fr\' echet smooth, LUR, and a uniform limit of $C^k$-Fr\' echet smooth norms. If $X=C([0,\alpha])$,…

This note establishes smooth approximation from above for J-plurisubharmonic functions on an almost complex manifold (X,J). The following theorem is proved. Suppose X is J-pseudoconvex, i.e., X admits a smooth strictly J-plurisubharmonic…

We study the problem of estimating the average of a Lipschitz continuous function $f$ defined over a metric space, by querying $f$ at only a single point. More specifically, we explore the role of randomness in drawing this sample. Our goal…

In one complex variable, the existence of a compactly supported solution to the Cauchy-Riemann equation is related to the vanishing of certain integrals of the data; trying to generalize this approach, we find an explicit construction, via…

Let (\Omega,\mu) be a finite measure space, X a Banach space, and let 1\le p<\infty. The aim of this paper is to give an elementary proof of the Diaz--Mayoral theorem that a subset V of L^p(\mu;X) is relatively compact if and only if it is…

It is shown that there exist Banach spaces $X,Y$, a $1$-net $\mathscr{N}$ of $X$ and a Lipschitz function $f:\mathscr{N}\to Y$ such that every $F:X\to Y$ that extends $f$ is not uniformly continuous.

Given a connected finite graph $G$, an integer-valued function $f$ on $V(G)$ is called $M$-Lipschitz if the value of $f$ changes by at most $M$ along the edges of $G$. In 2013, Peled, Samotij, and Yehudayoff showed that random $M$-Lipschitz…
