Abstract

We consider the following interpolation problem. Suppose one is given a finite set ERdE \subset \mathbb{R}^d, a function f:ERf: E \rightarrow \mathbb{R}, and possibly the gradients of ff at the points of EE. We want to interpolate the given information with a function FC1,1(Rd)F \in C^{1,1}(\mathbb{R}^d) with the minimum possible value of Lip(F)\mathrm{Lip} (\nabla F). We present practical, efficient algorithms for constructing an FF such that Lip(F)\mathrm{Lip} (\nabla F) is minimal, or for less computational effort, within a small dimensionless constant of being minimal.
