Optimal cubature formulas in weighted Besov spaces with \(A _{\infty }\) weights on multivariate domains (Q1943995)

Let the domain \(\Omega\) denote either the unit sphere \(S^{d-1} = \{ x \in \mathbb{R}^{d} : \|x\|=1\}\), the unit ball \(B^d = \{ x \in \mathbb{R}^d : \|x\| \leq 1 \}\) or the standard simplex \(T^d = \{ x \in \mathbb{R}^d : x_j \geq 0,~ j=1,2, \dots,d \;\text{and} \;\sum_{j=1}^d x_j \leq 1 \}\) of the Euclidean space \(\mathbb{R}^d\). For the unit ball \(UB_{\tau}^{\alpha} (L_{p,w}):=\{ f \in B_{\tau}^{\alpha}(L_{p,w}) : \|f\|_{B_{\tau}^{\alpha}(L_{p,w})} \leq 1 \}\) of the weighted Besov space \(B_{\tau}^{\alpha}(L_{p,w}) \) with an \(A_{\infty}\) weight \(w\) on the domain \(\Omega\), the sharp asymptotic order of the quantity \[ \inf_{\lambda_1,\dots, \lambda_n \in \mathbb{R}, \xi_1, \dots, \xi_n \in S^{d-1}} \sup_{f \in UB_{\tau}^{\alpha} (L_{p,w})} | \int_{\Omega} f(x) w(x) dx - \sum_{j=1}^n \lambda_j f(\xi_j) | \] is obtained as \(n \rightarrow \infty\). A similar result is also established on unweighted spherical caps \(B(x,r) = \{ y \in S^{d-1} : \rho (x,y) \leq r \}\) with \(\rho(x,y)= \arccos{(x,y)}\) the geodesic distance of \(x,y \in S^{d-1}\).
