The purpose of the paper is to provide a characterization of the error of the best polynomial approximation of composite functions in weighted spaces. Such a characterization is essential for the convergence analysis of numerical methods…

A {\em slab} (or plank) of width $w$ is a part of the $d$-dimensional space that lies between two parallel hyperplanes at distance $w$ from each other. It is conjectured that any slabs $S_1, S_2,\ldots$ whose total width is divergent have…

Let $K/k$ be an extension of number fields, and let $P(t)$ be a quadratic polynomial over $k$. Let $X$ be the affine variety defined by $P(t) = N_{K/k}(\mathbf{z})$. We study the Hasse principle and weak approximation for $X$ in three…

Relations between two classes of Hilbert spaces of entire functions, de Branges spaces and Fock-type spaces with non-radial weights, are studied. It is shown that any de Branges space can be realized as a Fock-type space with equivalent…

Under certain hypotheses on the Banach space $X$, we show that the set of $N$-homogeneous polynomials from $X$ to any dual space, whose Aron-Berner extensions are norm attaining, is dense in the space of all continuous $N$-homogeneous…

Given a submodular capacity space, we prove the uniform convergence in capacity and also the uniform convergence in the Choquet-mean of order $p\ge1$ with a quantitative estimate, of the multivariate Bernstein polynomials associated to a…

We prove that the nearly invariant subspaces of a de Branges space which have no common zeros are precisely of the form an exponential function times a de Branges space.

Given a matrix $A$, a matrix nearness problem seeks an $X$ that most closely approximates $A$ in the sense of minimizing $\lVert A - X\rVert$ under a variety of constraints on $X$. A generalized matrix nearness problem seeks the same but…

We prove that if $\{ \varphi_j\}_j$ is a sequence of subharmonic functions which are increasing to some subharmonic function $\varphi$ in $\mathbb{C}$, then the union of all the weighted Hilbert spaces $H(\varphi_j)$ is dense in the…

We address the problem of the best uniform approximation by linear combinations of a finite system of functions. If the system is Chebyshev and the problem is unconstrained, then the classical Remez algorithm provides a fast and precise…

Let $\omega$ be a non-negative function on $\mathbb{R}$. We are looking for a non-zero $f$ from a given space of entire functions $X$ satisfying $$(a) \quad|f|\leq \omega\text{\quad or\quad(b)}\quad |f|\asymp\omega.$$ The classical…

We solve the problem of Duffin and Schaeffer (1952) of characterizing those sequences of real frequencies which generate Fourier frames. Equivalently, we characterize the sampling sequences for the Paley-Wiener space. The key step is to…

Nonlinear approximation from regular piecewise polynomials (splines) of degree $<k$ supported on rings in $\R^2$ is studied. By definition a ring is a set in $\R^2$ obtained by subtracting a compact convex set with polygonal boundary from…

Three approximation problems in Krein spaces are studied, namely the indefinite weighted least squares problem and the related problems of indefinite abstract splines and smoothing. In every case, we analyze if the problem has a solution…

The universal approximation theorem is generalised to uniform convergence on the (noncompact) input space $\mathbb{R}^n$. All continuous functions that vanish at infinity can be uniformly approximated by neural networks with one hidden…

For the class of de Branges-Rovnyak spaces $\mathcal{H}(b)$ of the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ defined by extreme points $b$ of the unit ball of $H^\infty$, we study the problem of approximation of a general function in $\mathcal{H}(b)$ by a…

We establish that Laplace transforms of the posterior Dirichlet process converge to those of the limiting Brownian bridge process in a neighbourhood about zero, uniformly over Glivenko-Cantelli function classes. For real-valued random…

We prove the convergence case of Khintchine's theorem, with general approximation functions that are not necessarily monotonic, for analytic nonplanar manifolds over local fields of positive characteristic. Our approach is based on the…

Given a porous compact $K \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ and a continuity modulus $\omega$, we prove a quantitative Jackson-Bernstein type theorem on harmonic approximation. That is, a function $f$ belongs to the class $\mathrm{Lip}_{\omega}(K)$ if…

We consider the linear span S of the functions tak (with some ak > 0) in weighted L2 spaces, with rather general weights. We give one necessary and one sufficient condition for S to be dense. Some comparisons are also made between the new…
