In this short note we prove that, if (C[a,b],{A_n}) is an approximation scheme and (A_n) satisfies de La Vall\'ee-Poussin Theorem, there are instances of continuous functions on [a,b], real analytic on (a,b], which are poorly approximable…

We survey key techniques and results from approximation theory in the context of uniform approximations to real functions such as e^{-x}, 1/x, and x^k. We then present a selection of results demonstrating how such approximations can be used…

The results presented in this paper are refinements of some results presented in a previous paper. Three such refined results are presented. The first one relaxes one of the basic hypotheses assumed in the previous paper, and thus extends…

We strengthen the Weierstrass approximation theorem by proving that any real-valued continuous function on an interval $I \subset \mathbb{R}$ can be uniformly approximated by a real-valued polynomial whose only (possibly complex) critical…

We comment on recent results in the field of information based complexity, which state (in a number of different settings), that approximation of infinitely differentiable functions is intractable and suffers from the curse of…

We apply the techniques of computable model theory to the distance function of a graph. This task leads us to adapt the definitions of several truth-table reducibilities so that they apply to functions as well as to sets, and we prove…

Motivated by extending the functional stochastic calculus, to important functionals to which it does not apply, a notion of functional derivative along a curve is introduced. This new setting is developed by incorporating path-dependent…

The problem of reconstructing functions from their asymptotic expansions in powers of a small variable is addressed by deriving a novel type of approximants. The derivation is based on the self-similar approximation theory, which presents…

We prove the following analogue of a Theorem of R.O. Davies: Every $\Sigma^1_2$ function $f:\R\times\R\to\R$ can be represented as a sum of rectangular $\Sigma^1_2$ functions if and only if all reals are constructible.

We consider the question of approximating any real number $\alpha$ by sums of $n$ rational numbers $\frac{a_1}{q_1} + \frac{a_2}{q_2} + ... + \frac{a_n}{q_n}$ with denominators $1 \leq q_1, q_2, ..., q_n \leq N$. This leads to an inquiry on…
