Sharp asymptotics of the \(L p\) approximation error for interpolation on block partitions



Abstract: Adaptive approximation (or interpolation) takes into account local variations in the behavior of the given function, adjusts the approximant depending on it, and hence yields the smaller error of approximation. The question of constructing optimal approximating spline for each function proved to be very hard. In fact, no polynomial time algorithm of adaptive spline approximation can be designed and no exact formula for the optimal error of approximation can be given. Therefore, the next natural question would be to study the asymptotic behavior of the error and construct asymptotically optimal sequences of partitions. In this paper we provide sharp asymptotic estimates for the error of interpolation by splines on block partitions in IRd. We consider various projection operators to define the interpolant and provide the analysis of the exact constant in the asymptotics as well as its explicit form in certain cases.


The goal of this paper is to study the adaptive approximation by interpolating splines defined over block partitions in \(\mathbb R^d\). Adaptive approximation (or interpolation) takes into account local variations in the behavior of the given function, adjusts the approximant depending on it, and hence yields a smaller error of approximation. With the help of an introduced projection operator the authors handle the general case, and then apply the obtained estimates to several different interpolating schemes most commonly used in practice. The approach is to introduce the error function which reflects the interaction of the approximation procedure with polynomials. Sharp asymptotic estimates for the error of interpolation by splines on block partitions in \(\mathbb R^d\) are provided. The authors consider various projection operators to define the interpolant and provide an analysis of the exact constant in the asymptotics as well as its explicit form in certain cases. The explicit form of the error function plays a major role in finding the constants in the formulae for exact asymptotics.
