Construction Techniques for Highly Accurate Quasi-Interpolation Operators

Under mild additional assumptions this paper constructs quasi-interpolants in the form

with approximation order ℓ−1, where_h(x) is a linear combination of translatesψ(x−jh) of a functionψinC^ℓ( ). Thus the order of convergence of such operators can be pushed up to a limit that only depends on the smoothness of the functionψ. This approach can be generalized to the multivariate setting by using discrete convolutions with tensor products of odd-degreeB-splines.
