A multi-dimensional Hausdorff moment problems regularization by finite moments (Q1284520)

The authors present a regularization of a Hausdorff moment problem with error estimates. The problem is multidimensional over the unit cube for reconstructing an unknown function from the given values of the integrals of the unknown function multiplied by all power-products of the independent variables. They describe a regularization scheme using orthogonalization by the tensor product of Legendre polynomials and ``approximation'' of the unknown function by a finite sum, the dimension of the space of approximation playing the role of the regularization parameter. For the case of square integrability of the unknown function they present an estimate of the regularization error that implies convergence if the data error tends to zero.
