Finiteness principles for smooth selection (Q2628929)

The authors prove finiteness principles for \(C^m(\mathbb{R}^n,\mathbb{R}^D)\) - selection, and for \(C^{m-1,1}(\mathbb{R}^n,\mathbb{R}^D)\) - selection. In particular, they provide a proof for the conjecture of \textit{Y. Brudnyi} and \textit{P. Shvartsman} [Int. Math. Res. Not. 1994, No. 3, 129--139 (1994; Zbl 0845.57022)] on Lipschitz selections for the case when the domain is \(X=\mathbb{R}^n\). The paper is organized into four sections as follows : Introduction, Shape Fields and Their Refinements (shape fields, polynomials basis, the transport lemma), The Main Lemma (statement, the base case, setup for the induction step, Calderón-Zygmund decomposition, auxiliary polynomials, good news about \(CZ\) cubes, local interpolants, completing the induction), Applications (finiteness principles I and II).
