We show that $L^\infty$-norms of orthoprojectors on certain types of perturbations of spline spaces are bounded independently of the knot sequence. Explicit applications of this result are given, one of them being orthoprojectors onto…

For the L_2-orthogonal projector P onto spaces of linear splines over simplicial partitions of polyhedral domains in R^d, d>1, we show that the L_infty norm of P cannot be bounded uniformly with respect to the partition. This is in contrast…

We prove that the Chebyshev spline orthoprojectors are uniformly bounded on $L^\infty$.

This article addresses two topics of significant mathematical and practical interest in the theory of kernel approximation: the existence of local and stable bases and the L_p--boundedness of the least squares operator. The latter is an…

Let $H$ be the discrete Schr\"odinger operator $Hu(n):=u(n-1)+u(n+1)+v(n)u(n)$, $u(0)=0$ acting on $l^2({\bf Z}^+)$ where the potential $v$ is real-valued and $v(n)\to 0$ as $n\to \infty$. Let $P$ be the orthogonal projection onto a closed…

This paper investigates the least-squares projection method for bounded linear operators, which provides a natural regularization scheme by projection for many ill-posed problems. Yet, without additional assumptions, the convergence of this…

We derive upper bounds on the difference between the orthogonal projections of a smooth function $u$ onto two finite element spaces that are nearby, in the sense that the support of every shape function belonging to one but not both of the…

Approximate duals of B-splines were first used by Chui et al. (2004) for the purpose of constructing tight wavelet frames on bounded intervals. They are splines with local support, whose inner product with a polynomial in the spline space…

The main result of this paper is a proof that, for any $f \in L_1[a,b]$, a sequence of its orthogonal projections $(P_{\Delta_n}(f))$ onto splines of order $k$ with arbitrary knots $\Delta_n$, converges almost everywhere provided that the…

We investigate the square variation operator $V^2$ (which majorizes the partial sum maximal operator) on general orthonormal systems (ONS) of size $N$. We prove that the $L^2$ norm of the $V^2$ operator is bounded by $O(\ln(N))$ on any ONS.…

Spanners, emulators, and approximate distance oracles can be viewed as lossy compression schemes that represent an unweighted graph metric in small space, say $\tilde{O}(n^{1+\delta})$ bits. There is an inherent tradeoff between the…

We construct projections onto the classical finite element spaces based on Lagrange, N\'ed\'elec, Raviart-Thomas, and discontinuous elements on shape-regular simplicial meshes. Our projections are defined locally, are bounded in the…

We consider a Schr\"odinger operator with bounded, measurable potential in multidimensional Euclidean space. We prove for every $L^2$-eigenfunction a quantitative equidistribution estimate. It compares the total $L^2$-norm with the…

Nonlinear approximation from regular piecewise polynomials (splines) of degree $<k$ supported on rings in $\R^2$ is studied. By definition a ring is a set in $\R^2$ obtained by subtracting a compact convex set with polygonal boundary from…

We study spanners in planar domains, including polygonal domains, polyhedral terrain, and planar metrics. Previous work showed that for any constant $\epsilon\in (0,1)$, one could construct a $(2+\epsilon)$-spanner with $O(n\log(n))$ edges…

We show that any $N$-dimensional linear subspace of $L^2(\mathbb{T})$ admits an orthonormal system such that the $L^2$ norm of the square variation operator $V^2$ is as small as possible. When applied to the span of the trigonometric…

A fundamental result in pseudodifferential theory is the Calder\'on-Vaillancourt theorem, which states that a pseudodifferential operator defined from a H\"ormander symbol of order $0$ defines a bounded operator on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$. In…
