Norms of inverses and condition numbers for matrices associated with scattered data (Q2644870): Difference between revisions

For matrices arising in connection with interpolating scattered, multivariate data, a general method is given for obtaining bounds both on the norm of the inverse of the interpolation matrix and on the condition number of that matrix. Interpolation functions are translates of a so called conditionally negative definite, radially symmetric function h(x) of order 1. As application of the method quantitative estimates are obtained in several cases, including those where h(x) is one of the functions \(\sqrt{1+\| x\|^ 2_ 2}\) and \(\log (1+\| x\|^ 2_ 2)\).
