We study the problem of multifidelity uncertainty propagation for computationally expensive models. In particular, we consider the general setting where the high-fidelity and low-fidelity models have a dissimilar parameterization both in…

We present improved approximation bounds for the Moore-Penrose inverses of banded matrices, where the bandedness is induced by a metric on the index set. We show that the pseudoinverse of a banded matrix can be approximated by another…
