In this paper we generalize to a certain class of Stein manifolds the Bernstein-Walsh-Siciak theorem which describes the equivalence between possible holomorphic continuation of a function $f$ defined on a compact set $K$ in $\mathbb{C}^N$…

Let $L$ be a linear differential operator with constant coefficients of order $n$ and complex eigenvalues $\lambda_{0},...,\lambda_{n}$. Assume that the set $U_{n}$ of all solutions of the equation $Lf=0$ is closed under complex…

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.…

Let $\frak E$ denote be the ring of Eisenstein integers. Let $z\in \mathbb C$ and $p_n,q_n \in \frak E$ be such that $\{p_n/q_n\}$ is the sequence of convergents corresponding to the continued fraction expansion of $z$ with respect to the…

We prove some results on when functions on compact sets $K \subset \mathbb C$ can be approximated by polynomials avoiding values in given sets. We also prove some higher dimensional analogues. In particular we prove that a continuous…

By the celebrated Weierstrass Theorem the set of algebraic polynomials is dense in the space of continuous functions on a compact set in R^d. In this paper we study the following question: does the density hold if we approximate only by…

We give a "regularity lemma" for degree-d polynomial threshold functions (PTFs) over the Boolean cube {-1,1}^n. This result shows that every degree-d PTF can be decomposed into a constant number of subfunctions such that almost all of the…

Let $ f_i: X \rightarrow {\bf C}$, for $i$ integer between $ 1$ and $ p $, be analytic functions defined on a complex analytic variety $X$. Let us consider $ {\cal D}_X $ the ring of linear differential operators and $ {\cal D}_X [s_1,…

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…

Let $\Lambda \subset \mathbb R^n$ be an algebraic lattice, coming from a projective module over the ring of integers of a number field $K$. Let $\mathcal Z \subset \mathbb R^n$ be the zero locus of a finite collection of polynomials such…

The celebrated and famous Weierstrass approximation theorem characterizes the set of continuous functions on a compact interval via uniform approximation by algebraic polynomials. This theorem is the first significant result in…

Iterated Bernstein polynomial approximations of degree n for continuous function which also use the values of the function at i/n, i=0,1,...,n, are proposed. The rate of convergence of the classic Bernstein polynomial approximations is…

A theorem of Hoischen states that given a positive continuous function $\varepsilon:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$, an integer $n\geq 0$, and a closed discrete set $E\subseteq\mathbb{R}$, any $C^n$ function $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ can be…

It was conjectured that if $f\in C^1(\mathbb{R}^n,\mathbb{R}^n)$ satisfies $\operatorname{rank} Df\leq m<n$ everywhere in $\mathbb{R}^n$, then $f$ can be uniformly approximated by $C^\infty$-mappings $g$ satisfying $\operatorname{rank}…

In this paper we extend the dichotomy given by Samuelsson and Wold that can be thought of as an analogue of the Wermer maximality theorem in $\mathbb{C}^2$ for certain polynomial polyhedra. We consider complex non-degenerate simply…

We study the approximation capabilities of two families of univariate polynomials that arise in applications of quantum signal processing. Although approximation only in the domain $[0,1]$ is physically desired, these polynomial families…

For a polynomial $P_n$ of degree $n$, Bernstein's inequality states that $\|P_n'\| \le n \|P_n\|$ for all $L^p$ norms on the unit circle, $0<p\le\infty,$ with equality for $P_n(z)= c z^n.$ We study this inequality for random polynomials,…

We give direct and inverse theorems for the weighted approximation of functions with inner singularities by combinations of Bernstein polynomials.

The problem of maximizing non-negative monotone submodular functions under a certain constraint has been intensively studied in the last decade. In this paper, we address the problem for functions defined over the integer lattice. Suppose…
