Let $\varPhi:{\mathbb R}^n \to [1, \infty)$ be a semi-continuous from below function such that $\lim \limits_{x \to \infty} \displaystyle \frac {\ln \varPhi(x)} {\Vert x \Vert} = +\infty$. It is shown that polynomials are dense in…
We prove that for any norm |*| in the d-dimensional real vector space V and for any odd n>0 there is a non-negative polynomial p(x), x in V of degree 2n such that p^{1/2n}(x) < |x| < c(n,d) p^{1/2n}(x), where c(n,d)={n+d-1 choose n}^{1/2n}.…
The direct and inverse theorems are established for the best approximation in the weighted $L^p$ space on the unit sphere of $\RR^{d+1}$, in which the weight functions are invariant under finite reflection groups. The theorems are stated…
We show that $C^0$-fine approximation of convex functions by smooth (or real analytic) convex functions on $\R^d$ is possible in general if and only if $d=1$. Nevertheless, for $d\geq 2$ we give a characterization of the class of convex…
We obtain the best approximation in $L^1(\R)$, by entire functions of exponential type, for a class of even functions that includes $e^{-\lambda|x|}$, where $\lambda >0$, $\log |x|$ and $|x|^{\alpha}$, where $-1 < \alpha < 1$. We also give…
It is not surprising that one should expect that the degree of constrained (shape preserving) approximation be worse than the degree of unconstrained approximation. However, it turns out that, in certain cases, these degrees are the same.…
In this paper, we prove a quantitative approximation result by orthonormal polynomials associated to an exponential weight of the form e -$\Phi$ , where $\Phi$ is an even polynomial with positive leading coefficient. This result is a…
We study linear polynomial approximation of functions in weighted Sobolev spaces $W^r_{p,w}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ of mixed smoothness $r \in \mathbb{N}$, and their optimality in terms of Kolmogorov and linear $n$-widths of the unit ball…
For $f$ analytic and close to convex in $D=\{z: |z|< 1\}$, we give sharp estimates for the logarithmic coefficients $\gamma_{n}$ of $f$ defined by $\log \dfrac{f(z)}{z}=2\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \gamma_{n}z^{n}$ when $n=1, 2,3$.
We study the convergence of these operators in a weighted space of functions on a positive semi-axis and estimate the approximation by using a new type of weighted modulus of continuity and error estimation.
In this note we provide and analyze a simple method that given an $n \times d$ matrix, outputs approximate $\ell_p$-Lewis weights, a natural measure of the importance of the rows with respect to the $\ell_p$ norm, for $p \geq 2$. More…
For an analytic and univalent function $f$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}:=\{z\in\mathbb{C}:|z|<1\}$ with the normalization $f(0)=0=f'(0)-1$, the logarithmic coefficients $\gamma_n$ are defined by $\log \frac{f(z)}{z}= 2\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}…
Let W: R to (0,1] be continuous. Bernstein's approximation problem, posed in 1924, deals with approximation by polynomials in the weighted uniform norm ||fW|| Linfinity(R) . The qualitative form of this problem was solved by Achieser,…
Motivated by numerical methods for solving parametric partial differential equations, this paper studies the approximation of multivariate analytic functions by algebraic polynomials. We introduce various anisotropic model classes based on…
For $G$ an open set in $\mathbb{C}$ and $W$ a non-vanishing holomorphic function in $G$, in the late 1990's, Pritsker and Varga characterized pairs $(G,W)$ having the property that any $f$ holomorphic in $G$ can be locally uniformly…
Final representation of all those measures $\mu$ for which algebraic polynomials are dense in $L_p(R, d\mu)$ is found. The weighted analogue of the Weierstrass polynomial approximation theorem and a new version of the M. Krein's theorem…
In this paper, we study polynomial norms, i.e. norms that are the $d^{\text{th}}$ root of a degree-$d$ homogeneous polynomial $f$. We first show that a necessary and sufficient condition for $f^{1/d}$ to be a norm is for $f$ to be strictly…
We strengthen the classical approximation theorems of Weierstrass, Runge and Mergelyan by showing the polynomial and rational approximants can be taken to have a simple geometric structure. In particular, when approximating a function $f$…
