We are concerned with the computation of the ${\mathcal L}_\infty$-norm for an ${\mathcal L}_\infty$-function of the form $H(s) = C(s) D(s)^{-1} B(s)$, where the middle factor is the inverse of a meromorphic matrix-valued function, and…

The $\ell_p$ linear regression problem is to minimize $f(x)=||Ax-b||_p$ over $x\in\mathbb{R}^d$, where $A\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times d}$, $b\in \mathbb{R}^n$, and $p>0$. To avoid overfitting and bound $||x||_2$, the constrained $\ell_p$…
An algorithm is given for determining an optimal $b$-step approximation of weighted data, where the error is measured with respect to the $L_\infty$ norm. For data presorted by the independent variable the algorithm takes $\Theta(n + \log n…
In this article, we study the problem of best $L_1$ approximation of Heaviside-type functions in Chebyshev and weak-Chebyshev spaces. We extend the Hobby-Rice theorem into an appropriate framework and prove the unicity of best $L_1$…
In this paper we obtain improved iteration complexities for solving $\ell_p$ regression. We provide methods which given any full-rank $\mathbf{A} \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times d}$ with $n \geq d$, $b \in \mathbb{R}^n$, and $p \geq 2$ solve…
We study the $L_2$-approximation of functions from a Hilbert space and compare the sampling numbers with the approximation numbers. The sampling number $e_n$ is the minimal worst case error that can be achieved with $n$ function values,…

In this paper we consider an SPDE where the leading term is a second order operator with periodic boundary conditions, coefficients which are measurable in $(t,\omega)$, and H\"older continuous in space. Assuming stochastic parabolicity…
We consider fast, provably accurate algorithms for approximating functions on the $d$-dimensional torus, $f: \mathbb{ T }^d \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$, that are sparse (or compressible) in the Fourier basis. In particular, suppose that the…
Given a real-valued weighted function $f$ on a finite dag, the $L_p$ isotonic regression of $f$, $p \in [0,\infty]$, is unique except when $p \in [0,1] \cup \{\infty\}$. We are interested in determining a ``best'' isotonic regression for $p…
In this paper, we derive an $L^p$-chaos expansion based on iterated Stratonovich integrals with respect to a given exponentially integrable continuous semimartingale. By omitting the orthogonality of the expansion, we show that every…
This paper studies two structured approximation problems: (1) Recovering a corrupted low-rank Toeplitz matrix and (2) recovering the range of a Fourier matrix from a single observation. Both problems are computationally challenging because…
A comprehensive overview of lattice rules and polynomial lattice rules is given for function spaces based on $\ell_p$ semi-norms. Good lattice rules and polynomial lattice rules are defined as those obtaining worst-case errors bounded by…
