One of the basic principles of Approximation Theory is that the quality of approximations increase with the smoothness of the function to be approximated. Functions that are smooth in certain subdomains will have good approximations in…
Feedforward neural networks have wide applicability in various disciplines of science due to their universal approximation property. Some authors have shown that single hidden layer feedforward neural networks (SLFNs) with fixed weights…
Many problems of theoretical and practical interest involve finding an optimum over a family of convex functions. For instance, finding the projection on the convex functions in $H^k(\Omega)$, and optimizing functionals arising from some…
We introduce another new type of combinations of Bernstein operators in this paper, which can be used to approximate the functions with inner singularities. The direct and inverse results of the weighted approximation of this new type…
This article establishes a complete approximate axiomatization for the real-closed field $\mathbb{R}$ expanded with all differentially-defined functions, including special functions such as $\sin(x), \cos(x), e^x, \dots$. Every true…
In this paper we consider class of continuous functions, called quasiaharmonic functions, admitting best approximations by harmonic polynomials. In this class we prove a uniqueness theorem by analogy with the analytic functions.
In this paper, we derive optimality conditions (Chebyshev approximation) for multivariate functions. The theory of Chebyshev (uniform) approximation for univariate functions is very elegant. The optimality conditions are based on the notion…
The problem of recovering a moment-determinate multivariate function $f$ via its moment sequence is studied. Under mild conditions on $f$, the point-wise and $L_1$-rates of convergence for the proposed constructions are established. The…
This paper considers binomial approximation of continuous time stochastic processes. It is shown that, under some mild integrability conditions, a process can be approximated in mean square sense and in other strong metrics by binomial…
We prove that univalent harmonic mappings can be approximated by univalent Fourier series of step functions.
We discuss technical results on learning function approximations using piecewise-linear basis functions, and analyze their stability and convergence using nonlinear contraction theory.
For convex univalent functions we give instances where the sharp bound for various coefficient functionals are identical to those for the corresponding bound for the inverse function. We give instances where the sharp bounds differ and also…
In this paper, a technique on constructing nonlinear resilient Boolean functions is described. By using several sets of disjoint spectra functions on a small number of variables, an almost optimal resilient function on a large even number…
In this short, conceptual paper we observe that essentially the same mathematics applies in three contexts with disparate literatures: (1) sigmoidal and RBF approximation of smooth functions, (2) rational approximation of analytic functions…
Cain, Clark and Rose defined a function $f\colon \RR^n \to \RR$ to be \emph{vertically rigid} if $\graph(cf)$ is isometric to $\graph (f)$ for every $c \neq 0$. It is \emph{horizontally rigid} if $\graph(f(c \vec{x}))$ is isometric to…
A function in a class $\mathcal{F}(X)$ is said to be subdifferentially determined in $\mathcal{F}(X)$ if it is equal up to an additive constant to any function in $\mathcal{F}(X)$ with the same subdifferential. A function is said to be…
It is a natural question to ask which plurisubharmonic functions admit a 'nice' approximation in the sense of a decreasing equisingular approximation with analytic singularities. For arbitrary toric plurisubharmonic functions, we give a…
We consider the problem of determining, given x, y in Z^k and a finite set F of affine functions on Z^k, whether y is reachable from x by applying the functions F. We also consider the analogous problem over N^k. These problems are known to…
We present a constructive proof of Brouwer's fixed point theorem for uniformly continuous and sequentially locally non-constant functions based on the existence of approximate fixed points. And we will show that Brouwer's fixed point…
In this paper we introduce and study a class of structured set-valued operators which we call union averaged nonexpansive. At each point in their domain, the value of such an operator can be expressed as a finite union of single-valued…
