For $h>0$ and positive integers $m$, $d$, such that $m>d/2$, we study non-stationary interpolation at the points of the scaled grid $h\mathbb{Z}^d$ via the Mat\'{e}rn kernel $\Phi_{m,d}$---the fundamental solution of $(1-\Delta)^m$ in…

Let $A_p(\C)$ be the space of entire functions such that $| f(z)|\le Ae^{Bp(z)}$ for some $A,B>0$ and let $V$ be a discrete sequence of complex numbers which is not a uniqueness set for $A_p(\C)$. We use $L^2$ estimates for the…

We prove a finiteness principle for interpolation of data by nonnegative Cm functions. Our result raises the hope that one can start to understand constrained interpolation problems in which e.g. the interpolating function F is required to…

Given $E_0, E_1, F_0, F_1, E$ rearrangement invariant function spaces, $a_0$, $a_1$, $b_0$, $b_1$, $b$ slowly varying functions and $0< \theta_0<\theta_1<1$, we characterize the interpolation spaces $$(\overline{X}^{\mathcal…

Let $\lambda$ be a positive number, and let $(x_j:j\in\mathbb Z)\subset\mathbb R$ be a fixed Riesz-basis sequence, namely, $(x_j)$ is strictly increasing, and the set of functions $\{\mathbb R\ni t\mapsto e^{ix_jt}:j\in\mathbb Z\}$ is a…

Positive definite functions are fundamental to many areas of applied mathematics, probability theory, spatial statistics and machine learning, amogst others. Motivated by a problem coming from the maximum likelihood estimation under fixed…

Let $f:[0,1]^d\to\mathbb{R}$ be a completely monotone integrand as defined by Aistleitner and Dick (2015) and let points $\boldsymbol{x}_0,\dots,\boldsymbol{x}_{n-1}\in[0,1]^d$ have a non-negative local discrepancy (NNLD) everywhere in…

Interpolation inequalities for $C^m$ functions allow to bound derivatives of intermediate order $0 < j<m$ by bounds for the derivatives of order $0$ and $m$. We review various interpolation inequalities for $L^p$-norms ($1 \le p \le…

A lemma of Micchelli's, concerning radial polynomials and weighted sums of point evaluations, is shown to hold for arbitrary linear functionals, as is Schaback's more recent extension of this lemma and Schaback's result concerning…

This work explores several aspects of interpolating sequences for $\ell^p_A$, the space of analytic functions on the unit disk with $p$-summable Maclaurin coefficients. Much of this work is communicated through a Carlesonian lens. We…

For pattern recognition like image recognition, it has become clear that each machine-learning dictionary data actually became data in probability space belonging to Euclidean space. However, the distances in the Euclidean space and the…

We consider functions mapping non-negative integers to non-negative real numbers such that a and a+n are mapped to values at least 1/n apart. In this paper we use a novel method to construct such a function. We conjecture that the supremum…

For any finite point set in $D$-dimensional space equipped with the 1-norm, we present random linear embeddings to $k$-dimensional space, with a new metric, having the following properties. For any pair of points from the point set that are…

We consider the problem of interpolating a function given on scattered points using Hermite-Birkhoff formulas on the sphere and other manifolds. We express each proposed interpolant as a linear combination of basis functions, the…

In every dimension $d \geq 2$, we give an explicit formula that expresses the values of any Schwartz function on $\mathbb{R}^d$ only in terms of its restrictions, and the restrictions of its Fourier transform, to all origin-centered spheres…

Approximation of scattered data is often a task in many engineering problems. The Radial Basis Function (RBF) approximation is appropriate for large scattered (unordered) datasets in d-dimensional space. This approach is useful for a higher…

This work concerns the distance in 2-norm from a matrix polynomial to a nearest polynomial with a specified number of its eigenvalues at specified locations in the complex plane. Perturbations are allowed only on the constant coefficient…

This work concerns the construction and characterization of product kernels for multivariate approximation from a finite set of discrete samples. To this end, we consider composing different component kernels, each acting on a…

This article investigates the unique determination of a radial refractive index n from spectral data. First, we demonstrate that for piecewise twice continuously differentiable functions, n is not uniquely determined by the special…

We consider the extremal problem of interpolation of scattered data in $\mathbb{R}^3$ by smooth curve networks with minimal $L_p$-norm of the second derivative for $1<p<\infty$. The problem for $p=2$ was set and solved by Nielson (1983).…
