Bernstein widths for some classes of analytic functions

From MaRDI portal





The aim of this paper is to prove the following results. Let \(X,Y\) be Banach spaces and let \(X\) be compactly embedded in \(Y\). Then a Bernstein \(n\)-width of the unit ball of \(X\) in \(Y\) is the value \[ b_n (X,Y) = \sup_{L_{n + 1}} \inf_{f \in L_{n + 1}} \bigl( |f |_y / |f |_x \bigr). \] where \(L_{n + 1}\) is an \((n + 1)\)- dimensional subspace of \(X\). Theorem 1. \(b_n (H^\infty, L_2 (T_r)) = \gamma_n \cdot \Gamma^n\), \(\gamma_n = ({1 - \eta^2 \over 1 - r^{2(n + 1)}})^{1/2}\), \(n \in \mathbb{N}\), where \(H^\infty\) is a classical Hardy class and \(L_2 (T_r)\) is a Lebesgue space on the circle \(T_r\) equipped with the normed Lebesgue measure. Theorem 2. Let \(\mu\) be a measure of the form \[ d \mu (z) = p(z) |dz |,\;p \in C(T_r), \;p > 0. \] Then \(b_n (H^\infty, L_2 (T_r, \mu)) \sim_{n \to \infty} (1 - r^2)^{1/2} G^{1/2} (\mu) \cdot r^n\), where \(G(\mu) = \exp ({1 \over 2 \pi r} \int_{T_r} \ln p(z) |dz |)\). Formerly (1980) Fisher and Micchelli investigated the Kolmogorov, Gel'fand and linear widths of similar classes of analytic functions and they assumed that Bernstein widths shall behave analogously. The main results of this paper disprove this assumption and show to us that Bernstein widths essentially differ from Kolmogorov, Gel'fand and linear widths.
