Summability on Mellin-type nonlinear integral operators

In this study, approximation properties of the Mellin-type nonlinear integral operators defined on multivariate functions are investigated. In order to get more general results than the classical aspects, we mainly use the summability methods defined by Bell. Considering the Haar measure with variation semi-norm in Tonelli's sense, we approach to the functions of bounded variation. Similar results are also obtained for uniformly continuous and bounded functions. Using suitable function classes we investigate the rate of convergence in the approximation. Finally, we give a non-trivial application verifying our approach.     

Approximation properties of the generalized Szasz operators by multiple Appell polynomials via power summability method

In this paper some properties of the generalized Szasz operators by multiple Appell polynomials are given, using into consideration the power summability method. In the first section are given some direct estimation related to the generalized Szasz operators by multiple Appell polynomials, including Korovkin type theorem. In the second section, we give some results related to the weighted spaces of continuous functions and Voronovskaya type theorem. In the third section, we have proved some results related to the statistical convergence of the generalized Szasz operators by multiple Appell polynomials, using into consideration the A− transformation. At the end of the paper are given some illustrative computational examples which make such summability methods (for example, power series method) more useful and fruitful for applications of functional analysis in approximation theory.     

On integral bernstein operators in some classes of measurable bivariate functions

The two main theorems are concerned with the approximations of (complex-valued) functions on the real plane by sums of Bernstein pseudoentire functions. They are formulated and proved in Section 4, after prior determination of the suitable integral operators. Analogous results for pseudopolynomial approximations were obtained by Brudnyî, Gonska, and Jetter ([2],[3]).Research supported by KBN grant 2 1079 91 01.     

Convergence rate of a new Bezier variant of Chlodowsky operators to bounded variation functions

In the present paper, we estimate the rate of pointwise convergence of the Bézier Variant of Chlodowsky operators _Cn,α$C_{n,\alpha }$ for functions, defined on the interval extending infinity, of bounded variation. To prove our main result, we have used some methods and techniques of probability theory.

Approximation of functions by certain nonlinear integral operators

We study approximation properties of certain nonlinear integral operators L _n * obtained by a modification of given operators L _n . The operators L _n;r and L _n;r * of r-times differentiable functions are also studied. We give theorems on approximation orders of functions by these operators in polynomial weight spaces.     

Approximation by boolean sums of positive linear operators III: Estimates for some numerical approximation schemes

In the present note we intröduce and investigate certain sequences of discrete positive linear operators and Boolean sum modifications of them. The mappings considered are obtained by discretizing a class of transformed convolution-type operators using Gaussian quadrature of appropriate order. For our operators and their modifications we prove pointwise Jackson-type theorems involving the first and second order moduli of smoothness, thus providing new and elegant proofs of earlier results by Timan, Telyakowskii, Gopengauz and DeVore. Due to their discrete structure, optimal order of approximation and ease of computation, the operators appear to be useful for numerical approximation. In an intermediate step we solve an old problem in Approximation Theory; its importance was only recently emphasized in a paper of Butzer.     

A continuum of unusual self-adjoint linear partial differential operators

In an earlier publication a linear operator _THar$T_{\mathrm{Har}}$ was defined as an unusual self-adjoint extension generated by each linear elliptic partial differential expression, satisfying suitable conditions on a bounded region Ω$\Omega$ of some Euclidean space. In this present work the authors define an extensive class of _THar$T_{\mathrm{Har}}$-like self-adjoint operators on the Hilbert function space _L2(Ω);$L_2(\Omega );$ but here for brevity we restrict the development to the classical Laplacian differential expression, with Ω$\Omega$ now the planar unit disk. It is demonstrated that there exists a non-denumerable set of such _THar$T_{\mathrm{Har}}$-like operators (each a self-adjoint extension generated by the Laplacian), each of which has a domain in _L2(Ω)$L_2(\Omega )$ that does not lie within the usual Sobolev Hilbert function space W²(Ω)$W^2(\Omega )$. These _THar$T_{\mathrm{Har}}$-like operators cannot be specified by conventional differential boundary conditions on the boundary of ∂Ω$\mathrm{\partial }\Omega$, and may have non-empty essential spectra.     

Fundamental solutions and Liouville type theorems for nonlinear integral operators

In this article we study basic properties for a class of nonlinear integral operators related to their fundamental solutions. Our goal is to establish Liouville type theorems: non-existence theorems for positive entire solutions for Iu?0 and for Iu+up?0, p>1.We prove the existence of fundamental solutions and use them, via comparison principle, to prove the theorems for entire solutions. The non-local nature of the operators poses various difficulties in the use of comparison techniques, since usual values of the functions at the boundary of the domain are replaced here by values in the complement of the domain. In particular, we are not able to prove the Hadamard Three Spheres Theorem, but we still obtain some of its consequences that are sufficient for the arguments.     

Nonlinear Methods of Approximation

Abstract. Our main interest in this paper is nonlinear approximation. The basic idea behind nonlinear approximation is that the elements used in the approximation do not come from a fixed linear space but are allowed to depend on the function being approximated. While the scope of this paper is mostly theoretical, we should note that this form of approximation appears in many numerical applications such as adaptive PDE solvers, compression of images and signals, statistical classification, and so on. The standard problem in this regard is the problem of m -term approximation where one fixes a basis and looks to approximate a target function by a linear combination of m terms of the basis. When the basis is a wavelet basis or a basis of other waveforms, then this type of approximation is the starting point for compression algorithms. We are interested in the quantitative aspects of this type of approximation. Namely, we want to understand the properties (usually smoothness) of the function which govern its rate of approximation in some given norm (or metric). We are also interested in stable algorithms for finding good or near best approximations using m terms. Some of our earlier work has introduced and analyzed such algorithms. More recently, there has emerged another more complicated form of nonlinear approximation which we call highly nonlinear approximation. It takes many forms but has the basic ingredient that a basis is replaced by a larger system of functions that is usually redundant. Some types of approximation that fall into this general category are mathematical frames, adaptive pursuit (or greedy algorithms), and adaptive basis selection. Redundancy on the one hand offers much promise for greater efficiency in terms of approximation rate, but on the other hand gives rise to highly nontrivial theoretical and practical problems. With this motivation, our recent work and the current activity focuses on nonlinear approximation both in the classical form of m -term approximation (where several important problems remain unsolved) and in the form of highly nonlinear approximation where a theory is only now emerging.     

Voronovskaya‐type theorems for Urysohn type nonlinear Bernstein operators

The concern of this paper is to continue the investigation of convergence properties of nonlinear approximation operators, which are defined by Karsli. In details, the paper centers around Urysohn‐type nonlinear counterpart of the Bernstein operators. As a continuation of the study of Karsli, the present paper is devoted to obtain Voronovskaya‐type theorems for the Urysohn‐type nonlinear Bernstein operators.     

Integral-type operators on continuous function spaces on the real line

In this paper we introduce some new sequences of positive linear operators, acting on a sufficiently large space of continuous functions on the real line, which generalize Gauss–Weierstrass operators.We study their approximation properties and prove an asymptotic formula that relates such operators to a second order elliptic differential operator of the form Lu?αu^′′+βu^′+γu.Shape-preserving and regularity properties are also investigated.     

Weighted estimates for integral operators on local type spaces

We prove the weighted boundedness for a family of integral operators on Lebesgue spaces and local type spaces. To this end we show that can be controlled by the Calderón operator and a local maximal operator. This approach allows us to characterize the power weighted boundedness on Lebesgue spaces.     

On nonlinear bivariate singular integral operators

In this paper, we give some pointwise convergence and Fatou type convergence theorems for a family of nonlinear bivariate singular integral operators in the following form: where m₁,m₂ ≥ 1 are fixed natural numbers, and ω ∈ Ω, Ω denotes a nonempty set of indices endowed with a topology. Here, denotes a family of kernel functions and f belongs to the space of Lebesgue integrable functions . Some numerical examples and graphical illustrations supporting the results are also given.     

Rational differential operators and their kernels

A linear differential/integral operator is associated to a rational matrix in a natural way, and the behavior is defined to be the kernel of this operator. Conditions under which two rational matrices have the same behavior are derived.     

On the asymptotic behaviour of linear combinations of Mellin‐Picard type operators

Here we give a Voronovskaja formula for linear combination of Mellin‐Picard type convolution operators where is the Mellin‐Picard kernel. This approach provides a better order of pointwise approximation.     

Analytical methods for an elliptic singular perturbation problem in a circle

We consider an elliptic perturbation problem in a circle by using the analytical solution that is given by a Fourier series with coefficients in terms of modified Bessel functions. By using saddle point methods we construct asymptotic approximations with respect to a small parameter. In particular we consider approximations that hold uniformly in the boundary layer, which is located along a certain part of the boundary of the domain.

Approximation of p-multiplier Operators via their Spectral Projections

Conditions for a p-multiplier $\psi: {\mathbb{Z}} \to {\mathbb{C}}Conditions for a p-multiplier are presented which ensure that the corresponding operator T_ψ, acting in , can be approximated by linear combinations of p-multiplier projections coming from the uniform operator closed, unital algebra of operators generated by T_ψ. Functions of bounded variation on play an important role, as do certain Λ (p)-sets. Dedicated to the memory of H. H. Schaefer Werner J.
