Abstract splines in Krein spaces (Q982609): Difference between revisions

Let \({\mathcal K}\) be a Krein space and \({\mathcal E}\) and \({\mathcal H}\) be Hilbert spaces. Let \(T:{\mathcal H}\to{\mathcal K}\) and \(V:{\mathcal H}\to{\mathcal E}\) be bounded surjective operators, and let \(z_0\in{\mathcal E}\) be a fixed vector. The authors present generalizations to Krein spaces of the abstract interpolation, smoothing and mixed problems proposed by Atteia in Hilbert spaces. For the indefinite abstract interpolation problem, they characterize those \(x_0\in{\mathcal H}\) for which \(Vx_0=z_0\) and \[ [Tx_0,Tx_0]_{\mathcal K}=\min\{[Tx,Tx]_{\mathcal K}:Vx=z_0\}. \] For the indefinite abstract smoothing problem, given \(\rho>0\), they look for the minimizers of the function \(F_\rho:{\mathcal H}\to \mathbb R\) defined by \[ F_\rho(x)=[Tx,Tx]_{\mathcal K}+\rho\|Vx-z_0\|^2_{\mathcal E}. \] For the indefinite abstract mixed problem, they consider bounded surjective operators \(V_1:{\mathcal H}\to{\mathcal E}_1\) and \(V_2:{\mathcal H}\to{\mathcal E}_2\) between Hilbert spaces, and then, for given \(\rho>0\) and a fixed vector \((z_1,z_2)\in {\mathcal E}_1\times{\mathcal E}_2\), they look for those vectors \(x_0\in V_1^{-1}(\{z_1\})\) which minimize the function \[ G_\rho(x)=[Tx,Tx]_{\mathcal K}+\rho\|V_2x-z_2\|^2_{{\mathcal E}_2},\quad x\in V_1^{-1}(\{z_1\}). \] The exposition is clear and sufficient details are included for relatively easy reading. Moreover, several examples and intermediate results and lemmas are also presented.
