We study the best coapproximation problem in the Banach space $ \ell_1^n, $ by using Birkhoff-James orthogonality techniques. Given a subspace $\mathbb{{Y}}$ of $\ell_1^n$, we completely identify the elements $x$ in $\ell_1^n,$ for which…
We study the best coapproximation problem in Banach spaces, by using Birkhoff-James orthogonality techniques. We introduce two special types of subspaces, christened the anti-coproximinal subspaces and the strongly anti-coproximinal…
For a unital $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal A$ and a subspace $\mathcal B$ of $\mathcal A$, a characterization for a best approximation to an element of $\mathcal A$ in $\mathcal B$ is obtained. As an application, a formula for the distance of an…
We prove that the existence of best coapproximation to any element of the normed linear space out of any one dimensional subspace and its coincidence with the best approximation to that element out of that subspace characterizes a real…
In [Y.~K.~Hu, K.~A.~Kopotun, X.~M.~Yu, Constr. Approx. 2000], the authors have obtained a characterization of best $n$-term piecewise polynomial approximation spaces as real interpolation spaces between $L^p$ and some spaces of bounded…
We study best approximations in Banach spaces via Birkhoff-James orthogonality of functionals. To exhibit the usefulness of Birkhoff-James orthogonality techniques in the study of best approximation problems, some algorithms and distance…
We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for a matrix $A$ to be Birkhoff-James orthogonal to any subspace $\mathscr W$ of $\mathbb M_n(\mathbb C)$. Using this we obtain an expression for the distance of $A$ from any unital $C^*$…
We study best approximations to compact operators between Banach spaces and Hilbert spaces, from the point of view of Birkhoff-James orthogonality and semi-inner-products. As an application of the present study, some distance formulae are…
We study the minimality of $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices $A$ respect to a $C^*$-subalgebra $\mathcal{B}$ of $M_n(\mathbb{C})$ in the spectral norm, that is \[\|A\|\leq \|A+B\|,\ \text{ for every } B\in \mathcal{B}.\] We generalize the…
There are two notions of approximate Birkhoff-James orthogonality in a normed space. We characterize both the notions of approximate Birkhoff-James orthogonality in the space of bounded linear operators defined on a normed space. A complete…
We introduce the notion of approximate smoothness in a normed linear space. We characterize this property and show the connections between smoothness and approximate smoothness for some spaces. As an application, we consider in particular…
The problem of finding a $k \times k$ submatrix of maximum volume of a matrix $A$ is of interest in a variety of applications. For example, it yields a quasi-best low-rank approximation constructed from the rows and columns of $A$. We show…
In both real and complex cases, we establish the connection of the problem about $2$-dimensional linear subspaces the most deviating from the coordinate ones with one simply formulated optimization problem for isoperimetric polygons in…
Matrices are typically considered over fields or rings. Motivated by applications in parametric differential equations and data-driven modeling, we suggest to study matrices with entries from a Hilbert space and present an elementary theory…
We consider $\ell_p$-direct sums ($1\leq p<\infty$) and $c_0$-direct sums of countably many normed spaces and find the duals of these spaces. We characterize the support functionals of arbitrary elements in these spaces to characterize…
We show that, for vector spaces in which distance measurement is performed using a gauge, the existence of best coapproximations in $1$-codimensional closed linear subspaces implies in dimensions $\geq 2$ that the gauge is a norm, and in…
In this thesis, we introduce the subject of D-spaces and some of its most important open problems which are related to well known covering properties. We then introduce a new approach for studying D-spaces and covering properties in…

We analyze the accuracy of the discrete least-squares approximation of a function $u$ in multivariate polynomial spaces $\mathbb{P}_\Lambda:={\rm span} \{y\mapsto y^\nu \,: \, \nu\in \Lambda\}$ with $\Lambda\subset \mathbb{N}_0^d$ over the…
