In this paper we introduce two conceptual algorithms for minimising abstract convex functions. Both algorithms rely on solving a proximal-type subproblem with an abstract Bregman distance based proximal term. We prove their convergence when…
We introduce some classical concepts in the representation theory of compact groups, in order to use them for a new generalization of the Peter-Weyl Theorem. We mostly deal with functions on locally compact groups possessing large…
We develop a general, functional calculus approach to approximation of $C_0$-semigroups on Banach spaces by bounded completely monotone functions of their generators. The approach comprises most of well-known approximation formulas, yields…
We prove a characterization for the Peetre type $K$-functional on $\mathbb{M}$, a compact two-point homogeneous space, in terms the rate of approximation of a family of multipliers operator defined to this purpose. This extends the well…
We present conditions that allow us to pass from the convergence of probability measures in distribution to the uniform convergence of the associated quantile functions. Under these conditions, one can in particular pass from the asymptotic…
The paper explores connection between the order and the type of an entire function and the speed of the best polynomial approximation in the unit disk. The relations which define the order and the type of an entire function through the…
We present the class of semi-admissible subsets of an open Riemann surface on which Carleman approximation by non-critical holomorphic functions is possible. In particular we characterize closed sets with empty interior on which continuous…
It is a classical result in rational approximation theory that certain non-smooth or singular functions, such as $|x|$ and $x^{1/p}$, can be efficiently approximated using rational functions with root-exponential convergence in terms of…
In this paper we provide a rigorous mathematical foundation for continuous approximations of a class of systems with piece-wise continuous functions. By using techniques from the theory of differential inclusions, the underlying piece-wise…
Approximation of entire functions by their pad\'e approximants has been examined in the past. It is true that generically such an approximation holds. However, examining this problem from another viewpoint, we obtain stronger generic…
Having a function $f$ and a set of functionals $\{\mathcal{C}_{n}\}$, $c_n^f \equiv \mathcal{C}_n \left(f\right)$, one can interpret function approximation very generally as a construction of some function $\mathcal{A}_{N}^{f}$ such that…
This expository article proves some results of Ferguson, on the approximation of continuous functions on a compact subset of R by polynomials with integral coefficients.
We study certain weighted Bergman and weighted Besov spaces of holomorphic functions in the polydisk and in the unit ball. We seek Mergelyan-type conditions on the non-radial weight function to guarantee that the dilations of a given…
Given sufficiently many components, it is often cited that finite mixture models can approximate any other probability density function (pdf) to an arbitrary degree of accuracy. Unfortunately, the nature of this approximation result is…
A general explicit form for generating functions for approximating fractional derivatives is derived. To achieve this, an equivalent characterisation for consistency and order of approximations established on a general generating function…
We apply the topology of convergence on compact sets to define unpredictable functions [5, 6]. The topology is metrizable and easy for applications with integral operators. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach, the existence and…
Functions on a bounded domain in scientific computing are often approximated using piecewise polynomial approximations on meshes that adapt to the shape of the geometry. We study the problem of function approximation using splines on a…
We study approximation by arbitrary linear combinations of $n$ translates of a single function of periodic functions. We construct some linear methods of this approximation for univariate functions in the class induced by the convolution…
If f is a smooth function on a Hodge manifold, we construct a canonical sequence of real algebraic functions that converge to f in the smooth topology. The definition of of the approximants is inspired by Berezin-Toeplitz quantization. The…
For a regular, compact, polynomially convex circled set K in C^2, we construct a sequence of pairs {P_n,Q_n} of homogeneous polynomials in two variables with deg P_n = deg Q_n = n such that the sets K_n: = {(z,w) \in C^2 : |P_n(z,w)| \leq…
