The problem to compute the vertices of a polytope given by affine inequalities is called vertex enumeration. The inverse problem, which is equivalent by polarity, is called the convex hull problem. We introduce `approximate vertex…
Polynomial approximation is studied in the Sobolev space $W_p^r(w_{\alpha,\beta})$ that consists of functions whose $r$-th derivatives are in weighted $L^p$ space with the Jacobi weight function $w_{\alpha,\beta}$. This requires…

A common problem in applied mathematics is to find a function in a Hilbert space with prescribed best approximations from a finite number of closed vector subspaces. In the present paper we study the question of the existence of solutions…
This paper addresses the problem of finding a B-term wavelet representation of a given discrete function $f \in \real^n$ whose distance from f is minimized. The problem is well understood when we seek to minimize the Euclidean distance…
Due to their flexibility, frames of Hilbert spaces are attractive alternatives to bases in approximation schemes for problems where identifying a basis is not straightforward or even feasible. Computing a best approximation using frames,…
This paper is motivated by two problems in the theory of Diophantine approximation, namely, Davenport's problem regarding badly approximable points on submanifolds of a Euclidean space and Schmidt's problem regarding the intersections of…

In the optimization of convex domains under a PDE constraint numerical difficulties arise in the approximation of convex domains in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Previous research used a restriction to rotationally symmetric domains to reduce shape…
