We strengthen the classical approximation theorems of Weierstrass, Runge and Mergelyan by showing the polynomial and rational approximants can be taken to have a simple geometric structure. In particular, when approximating a function $f$…

A compact subset $K$ of the complex plane $\C$ is a set of polynomial (respectively rational) approximation if $P(K)=A(K)$ (respectively $R(K)=A(K)$), where $P(K)$ (respectively $R(K)$) is the family of functions on $K$ which are uniform…

We study the approximation of holomorphic functions of several complex variables by the ring $\mathcal{P}^S(\mathbb{C}^n)$ of polynomials whose exponents are restricted to a convex cone $\mathbb{R}_+S$ for some compact convex $S\in…

The Runge approximation theorem for holomorphic maps (U -> C) is a fundamental result in complex analysis. The aim of this article is to prove such a result for (pseudo-)holomorphic maps from a compact Riemann surface to a compact…

We use weighted polynomial approximation to prove the existence of a compact set K with non-empty interior and a function f is dense in the space A(K) of all continuous functions on K that are holomorphic in the interior of K, endowed with…

Many practical problems need the output of a machine learning model to satisfy a set of constraints, $K$. Nevertheless, there is no known guarantee that classical neural network architectures can exactly encode constraints while…

For a regular, compact, polynomially convex circled set K in C^2, we construct a sequence of pairs {P_n,Q_n} of homogeneous polynomials in two variables with deg P_n = deg Q_n = n such that the sets K_n: = {(z,w) \in C^2 : |P_n(z,w)| \leq…

Let K be a closed bounded convex subset of $\Bbb R^n$; then by a result of the first author, which extends a classical theorem of Whitney there is a constant $w_m(K)$ so that for every continuous function f on K there is a polynomial $\phi$…

Let $R$ be the face ring of a simplicial complex of dimension $d-1$ and ${\mathcal R}(\mathfrak{n})$ be the Rees algebra of the maximal homogeneous ideal $\mathfrak{n}$ of $R.$ We show that the generalized Hilbert-Kunz function…

The general theme of this note is illustrated by the following theorem: Theorem 1. Suppose $K$ is a compact set in the complex plane and 0 belongs to the boundary $\partial K$. Let ${\cal A}(K)$ denote the space of all functions $f$ on $K$…

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…

Consider a set P of N random points on the unit sphere of dimension $d-1$, and the symmetrized set S = P union (-P). The halving polyhedron of S is defined as the convex hull of the set of centroids of N distinct points in S. We prove that…

In Mergelyan type approximation we uniformly approximate functions on compact sets K by polynomials or rational functions or holomorphic functions on varying open sets containing K. In the present paper we consider analogous approximation,…

We use discrete holomorphic polynomials to prove that, given a refining sequence of critical maps of a Riemann surface, any holomorphic function can be approximated by a converging sequence of discrete holomorphic functions.

We say that a subset of C^n is hypoconvex if its complement is the union of complex hyperplanes. Let D be the closed unit disk in C, T the unit circle. We prove two conjectures of Helton and Marshall. (See ``Frequency domain design and…

Let T be the unit circle in the complex plane C. This paper proves the existence of analytic structure in a compact subset K of T X C^n, where K has so-called "lineally convex" or "hypoconvex" fibers over T. It also addresses a related…

The theory of universal Taylor series can be extended to the case of Pad\'e approximants where the universal approximation is not realized by polynomials any more, but by rational functions, namely the Pad\'e approximants of some power…

Lasserre [La] proved that for every compact set $K\subset\mathbb R^n$ and every even number $d$ there exists a unique homogeneous polynomial $g_0$ of degree $d$ with $K\subset G_1(g_0)=\{x\in\mathbb R^n:g_0(x)\leq 1\}$ minimizing $|G_1(g)|$…

Considering a mapping g holomorphic on a neighbourhood of a rationally convex set K in $C^n$, and range into the complex projective space $P^m$, the main objective of this paper is to show that we can uniformly approximate g on K by…
