Penalized spline estimation with discrete difference penalties (P-splines) is a popular estimation method for semiparametric models, but the classical least-squares estimator is highly sensitive to deviations from its ideal model…
In this paper we provide a priori error estimates in standard Sobolev (semi-)norms for approximation in spline spaces of maximal smoothness on arbitrary grids. The error estimates are expressed in terms of a power of the maximal grid…

The usual power function error estimates do not capture the true order of uniform accuracy for thin plate spline interpolation to smooth data functions in one variable. In this paper we propose a new type of power function and we show,…

We present a Hermite interpolation problem via splines of odd-degree which, to the best knowledge of the authors, has not been considered in the literature on interpolation via odd-degree splines. In this new interpolation problem, we…
Numerical solutions of differential equations are usually not smooth functions. However, they should resemble the smoothness of the corresponding real solutions in one way or another. In two of our recent papers, a kind of spacial…
In this paper we consider the approximation of a function by its interpolating multilinear spline and the approximation of its derivatives by the derivatives of the corresponding spline. We derive formulas for the uniform approximation…
Interpolation of classes of differentiated functions given on a finite interval by trigonometric splines using the phantom node method is considered. This method consists in supplementing a given sequence of values of an approximate…
Splitting methods constitute a widely used class of numerical integrators for ordinary and partial differential equations, particularly well suited to problems that can be decomposed into simpler subproblems. High-order splitting schemes…
In the 1990's exponential-type error bounds appeared in the theory of radial basis functions. This kind of error bounds is very powerful. However it only measures the difference between the approximant and approximand. Mathematicians and…
One frequently needs to interpolate or approximate gradients on simplicial meshes. Unfortunately, there are very few explicit mathematical results governing the interpolation or approximation of vector-valued functions on Delaunay meshes in…
