On sum and quotient of quasi-Chebyshev subspaces in Banach spaces

It will be determined under what conditions types of proximinality are transmitted to and from quotient spaces.In the final section,by many examples we show that types of proximinality of subspaces in Banach spaces can not be preserved by equivalent norms.     

Codimension-one minimal projections onto Haar subspaces

Let H_n be an n-dimensional Haar subspace of and let H_n−1 be a Haar subspace of H_n of dimension n−1. In this note we show (Theorem 6) that if the norm of a minimal projection from H_n onto H_n−1 is greater than 1, then this projection is an interpolating projection. This is a surprising result in comparison with Cheney and Morris (J. Reine Angew. Math. 270 (1974) 61 (see also (Lecture Notes in Mathematics, Vol. 1449, Springer, Berlin, Heilderberg, New York, 1990, Corollary III.2.12, p. 104) which shows that there is no interpolating minimal projection from C[a,b] onto the space of polynomials of degree n, (n2). Moreover, this minimal projection is unique (Theorem 9). In particular, Theorem 6 holds for polynomial spaces, generalizing a result of Prophet [(J. Approx. Theory 85 (1996) 27), Theorem 2.1].     

Finite-codimensional Chebyshev subspaces in the complex spaceC(Q)

We consider finite-condimensional Chebyshev subspaces in the complex spaceC(Q), whereQ is a compact Hausdorff space, and prove analogs of some theorems established earlier for the real case by Garkavi and Brown (in particular, we characterize such subspaces). It is shown that if the real spaceC(Q) contains finite-codimensional Chebyshev subspaces, then the same is true of the complex spaceC(Q) (with the sameQ).

Some remarks on quasi-Chebyshev subspaces

We give simple proofs of some results of Mohebi [H. Mohebi, On quasi-Chebyshev subspaces of Banach spaces, J. Approx. Theory 107 (2000) 87-95] on quasi-Chebyshev subspaces.

Rough Convergence and Chebyshev Centers in Banach Spaces

By means of rough convergence, we introduce two new geometric properties in Banach spaces and relate them to Chebyshev centers and some well-known classical properties, such as Kalton's M property or Garkavi's uniform rotundity in every direction.     

Bernstein-type operators in Chebyshev spaces

We prove that it is possible to construct Bernstein-type operators in any given Extended Chebyshev space and we show how they are connected with blossoms. This generalises and explains a recent result by Aldas/Kounchev/Render on exponential spaces. We also indicate why such operators automatically possess interesting shape preserving properties and why similar operators exist in still more general frameworks, e.g., in Extended Chebyshev Piecewise spaces. We address the problem of convergence of infinite sequences of such operators, and we do prove convergence for special instances of Müntz spaces.      

On existence subspaces inC(Q)

The property of a space to be an existence subspace is studied for subspacesE ofC(Q) such that eitherE orC(Q)/E is a Lindenstrauss space. For a Chebyshev subspaceL⊂C(Q)₁ an analytic representation of the nearest element in terms of the annihilatorL ^┴ is obtained.

On simultaneous weakly-Chebyshev subspaces

In this paper, we shall introduce and characterize simultaneous quasi-Chebyshev (and weakly-Chebyshev) subspaces of normed spaces with respect to a bounded set S by using elements of the dual space.     

Characterization of best Chebyshev approximations with prescribed norm

In this paper a new characterization of smooth normed linear spaces is discussed using the notion of proximal points of a pair of convex sets. It is proved that a normed linear space is smooth if and only if for each pair of convex sets, points which are mutually nearest to each other from the respective sets are proximal.     

Extremally disconnected spaces, subspaces and retracts

A characterization of compact subspaces of extremally disconnected spaces is given which is similar to Gleason's characterization that the extremally disconnected spaces are projective for the class of compact spaces. An equivalence is established between the questions of whether every basically disconnected space is embeddable into an extremally disconnected space and the Borel lifting problems for the category algebras of generalized Cantor cubes. We study an inductive method of strengthening the product topology on the Cantor cubes to extremally disconnected topologies and use this to establish, from CH, that every compact F-space of weight c⁺ embeds into an extremally disconnected space.     

Chebyshev splines beyond total positivity

For polynomial splines as well as for Chebyshev splines, it is known that total positivity of the connection matrices is sufficient to obtain B-spline bases. In this paper we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of B-bases (or, equivalently, of blossoms) for splines with connection matrices and with sections in different four-dimensional extended Chebyshev spaces.     

Complemented subspaces of products of Banach spaces

We show that complemented subspaces of uncountable products of Banach spaces are products of complemented subspaces of countable subproducts.

     

Some new Chebyshev spaces

In this note we see another circumstance where Chebyshev polynomials play a significant role. In particular, we present some new extended Chebyshev spaces that arise in the asymptotic stability of the zero solution of first order linear delay differential equations with m commensurate delays where a_j,j=0,…,m, are constants and τ>0 is constant.     

Bregman distances and Chebyshev sets

A closed set of a Euclidean space is said to be Chebyshev if every point in the space has one and only one closest point in the set. Although the situation is not settled in infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces, in 1932 Bunt showed that in Euclidean spaces a closed set is Chebyshev if and only if the set is convex. In this paper, from the more general perspective of Bregman distances, we show that if every point in the space has a unique nearest point in a closed set, then the set is convex. We provide two approaches: one is by nonsmooth analysis; the other by maximal monotone operator theory. Subdifferentiability properties of Bregman nearest distance functions are also given.     

Chebyshev spaces with polynomial blossoms

The use of extended Chebyshev spaces in geometric design is motivated by the interesting shape parameters they provide. Unfortunately the algorithms such spaces lead to are generally complicated because the blossoms themselves are complicated. In order to make up for this inconvenience, we here investigate particular extended Chebyshev spaces, containing the constants and power functions whose exponents are consecutive positive integers. We show that these spaces lead to simple algorithms due to the fact that the blossoms are polynomial functions. Furthermore, we also describe an elegant dimension elevation algorithm which makes it possible to return to polynomial spaces and therefore to use all the classical algorithms for polynomials. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Lipschitz continuity of the best approximation operator in vector-valued Chebyshev approximation

When G is a finite dimensional Haar subspace of C(X,R^k), the vector-valued continuous functions (including complex-valued functions when k is 2) from a finite set X to Euclidean k-dimensional space, it is well-known that at any function f in C(X,R^k) the best approximation operator satisfies the strong unicity condition of order 2 and a Lipschitz (Hőlder) condition of order . This note shows that in fact the best approximation operator satisfies the usual Lipschitz condition of order 1.
