Form preservation under approximation by local exponential splines of an arbitrary order (Q742286)

The properties of local L-splines with uniform knots (such splines were constructed in the earlier papers of Strelkova (Shevaldina)) corresponding to a linear differential operator with constant coefficients are studied. Necessary and sufficient conditions are established under which an L-spline locally inherits the property of the generalized monotonicity of the input data. The constructed splines preserved all functions from the kernel of a linear differential operator with constant coefficients and real pairwise diffrent roots of the characteristic polynomial. The parameters of an L-spline that is exact on the kernel of the operator are written explicitly.
