Norms of interpolational splines of odd degree in the spaces \(W_ 2^ k\) (Q920313)

Let \(W^ k_ 2\) be the Sobolev space of \(2\pi\)-periodic functions on the real line. The author shows that, in general, the norm of an interpolational polynomial spline of order 2k-1 viewed as an operator from \(W^ k_ 2\), is not equal to 1. He also constructs subspaces in \(W^ k_ 2\) such that the interpolation projections onto them have unit norms.
