Examples of \(k\)-regular maps and interpolation spaces (Q2013178)

A continuous map \(f :\mathbb{K}^{n} \rightarrow \mathbb{K}^{N}\), \(\mathbb{K} =\mathbb{R}\) or \(\mathbb{C}\), is \(k\)-regular if the image of any \(k\) distinct points span a \(k\)-dimensional linear subspace of \(\mathbb{K}^{N} .\) Such mappings are related to interpolation problem by the following (known) theorem: there exists a \(k\)-regular mapping \(f :\mathbb{R}^{n} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{N}\) if and only if there exists \(N\)-dimensional vector subspace \(V \subset C^{0}(\mathbb{R}^{n})\) of the space of continuous function on \(\mathbb{R}^{n}\) such that for any distinct points \(P_{1} ,\ldots ,P_{k} \in \mathbb{R}^{n}\) and scalars \(\lambda _{1} ,\ldots ,\lambda _{k} \in \mathbb{R}^{}\) there exists \(f \in V\) such that \(f\left (P_{i}\right ) =\lambda _{i}\), \(i =1 ,\ldots ,k\). The authors, using the classical Veronese embedding, prove the following theorems in complex case: 1. For any \(k >3\) the mapping \[ \mathbb{C}^{n} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}^{\binom{n +k -2}{k -2} +1} \] which consecutive components are: all monomials of degree at most \((k -3) ,\) all monomials of degree \((k -2)\) with exception of pure powers, \((n -1)\) polynomials \(x_{i}^{k -1} -x_{i +1}^{k -2}\) for \(i =1 ,\ldots ,n -1\) and the single monomials \(x_{1}^{k -2}\) and \(x_{n}^{k -1}\), is a \(k\)-regular map, 2. For any \(k >4\) the maping \[ \mathbb{C}^{n} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}^{\binom{n +k -3}{n} +n +1} \] which consecutive components are: all monomials of degree at most \((k -3)\), \((n -1)\) polynomials \(x_{i}^{k -1} -x_{i +1}^{k -2}\) for \(i =1 ,\ldots ,n -1\) and the single monomials \(x_{1}^{k -2}\) and \(x_{n}^{k -1}\), is a \(k\)-regular map. In particular they obtain a \(4\)-regular polynomial mapping \(\mathbb{C}^{3} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}^{11}\) and a \(5\)-regular polynomial mapping \(\text{}\mathbb{C}^{3} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}^{14} .\)
