Tame linear extension operators for smooth Whitney functions

For a compact set K⊆Rd we present a rather easy construction of a linear extension operator E:E(K)→C^∞(Rd) for the space of Whitney jets E(K) which satisfies linear tame continuity estimates , where ‖⋅s_‖ denotes the s-th Whitney norm. The construction turns out to be possible if and only if the local Markov inequality LMI(s) introduced by Bos and Milman holds for every s>r on K. In particular, E(K) admits a tame linear extension operator if and only if the local Markov inequality LMI(s) holds on K for some s?1.     

Analytic Extension of Non Quasi - Analytic Whitney Jets of Beurling Type

Let (M_r)_r∈_?0 be a logarithmically convex sequence of positive numbers which verifies M₀ = 1 as well as M_r ≥ 1 for every r ∈ ? and defines a non quasi - analytic class. Let moreover F be a closed proper subset of ?ⁿ. Then for every function f on ?ⁿ belonging to the non quasi - analytic (M_r)-class of Beurling type, there is an element g of the same class which is analytic on ?,ⁿ F and such that D^αf(x) = D^αg(x) for every α ∈ ?ⁿ₀ and x ∈ F.     

Locally defined operators in the space of Whitney differentiable functions

For a given set A⊂Rⁿ$A\subset {\mathbb{R}}^n$ a representation theorem for locally defined operators mapping the space C^m(A)$C^m\left(A\right)$ of Whitney differentiable functions into C⁰(A)$C^0\left(A\right)$ is presented.     

Positive linear operators generated by analytic functions

Let φ be a power series with positive Taylor coefficients {a _k } _k=0^∞ and non-zero radius of convergence r ≤ ∞. Let ξ _x , 0 ≤ x < r be a random variable whose values α _k , k = 0, 1, …, are independent of x and taken with probabilities a _k x ^k /φ(x), k = 0, 1, …. The positive linear operator (A _φ f)(x):= E[f(ξ _x )] is studied. It is proved that if E(ξ _x ) = x, E(ξ _x ²) = qx ² + bx + c, q, b, c ∈ R, q > 0, then A _φ reduces to the Szász-Mirakyan operator in the case q = 1, to the limit q-Bernstein operator in the case 0 < q < 1, and to a modification of the Lupaş operator in the case q > 1.     

Whitney-type theorems on extension of functions on Carnot groups

Sectorial extensions for ultraholomorphic classes defined by weight functions

We prove an extension theorem for ultraholomorphic classes defined by so-called Braun–Meise–Taylor weight functions ω and transfer the proofs from the single weight sequence case from V. Thilliez to the weight function setting. We are following a different approach than the results obtained in a recent paper by the authors, more precisely we are working with real methods by applying the ultradifferentiable Whitney-extension theorem. We are treating both the Roumieu and the Beurling case, the latter one is obtained by a reduction from the Roumieu case.

Approximations by linear operators in spaces of fuzzy continuous functions

In this work, we further develop the Korovkin-type approximation theory by utilizing a fuzzy logic approach and principles of neoclassical analysis, which is a new branch of fuzzy mathematics and extends possibilities provided by the classical analysis. In the conventional setting, the Korovkin-type approximation theory is developed for continuous functions. Here we extend it to the space of fuzzy continuous functions, which contains a great diversity of functions that are not continuous. Furthermore, we give several applications, demonstrating that our new approximation results are stronger than the classical ones.     

Infinite systems of linear equations for real analytic functions

We also show that every open set has a complex neighbourhood such that the positive answer is equivalent to the positive answer for the analogous question with solutions holomorphic on .

Uniformly continuous superposition operators in the space of bounded variation functions

Let I, J ? ? be intervals. The main result says that if a superposition operator H generated by a function of two variables h: I × J → ?, H (φ)(x) ? h (x, φ (x)), maps the set BV (I, J) of all bounded variation functions, φ: I → J into the Banach space BV (I, ?) and is uniformly continuous with respect to the BV ‐norm, then h (x, y) = a (x)y + b (x), x ∈ I, y ∈ J, for some a, b ∈ BV (I, ?)

Fredholm composition operators on algebras of analytic functions on Banach spaces

We prove that Fredholm composition operators acting on the uniform algebra H^∞(BE) of bounded analytic functions on the open unit ball of a complex Banach space E with the approximation property are invertible and arise from analytic automorphisms of the ball.     

On approximation of smooth functions from null spaces of optimal linear differential operators with constant coefficients

For a real valued function f defined on a finite interval I we consider the problem of approximating f from null spaces of differential operators of the form Ln(ψ) = n ∑ k=0 akψ(k), where the constant coefficients ak ∈ R may be adapted to f . We prove that for each f ∈ C(n)(I), there is a selection of coefficients {a1, ,an} and a corresponding linear combination Sn( f ,t) = n ∑ k=1 bkeλkt of functions ψk(t) = eλkt in the nullity of L which satisfies the following Jackson’s type inequality: f (m) Sn(m )( f ,t) ∞≤ |an|2n|Im|1/1q/ep|λ|λn|n|I||nm1 Ln( f ) p, where |λn| = mka x|λk|, 0 ≤ m ≤ n 1, p,q ≥ 1, and 1p + q1 = 1. For the particular operator Mn(f) = f + 1/(2n) f(2n) the rate of approximation by the eigenvalues of Mn for non-periodic analytic functions on intervals of restricted length is established to be exponential. Applications in algorithms and numerical examples are discussed.     

Differentiable functions defined in closed sets. A problem of Whitney

In 1934, Whitney raised the question of how to recognize whether a function f defined on a closed subset X of ℝ ⁿ is the restriction of a function of class 𝒞 ^p . A necessary and sufficient criterion was given in the case n=1 by Whitney, using limits of finite differences, and in the case p=1 by Glaeser (1958), using limits of secants. We introduce a necessary geometric criterion, for general n and p, involving limits of finite differences, that we conjecture is sufficient at least if X has a “tame topology”. We prove that, if X is a compact subanalytic set, then there exists q=q _X (p) such that the criterion of order q implies that f is 𝒞 ^p . The result gives a new approach to higher-order tangent bundles (or bundles of differential operators) on singular spaces.

Linear extension operators for continuous functions on definable sets in the p‐adic context

Let E be a subset of . A linear extension operator is a linear map that sends a function on E to its extension on some superset of E . In this paper, we show that if E is a semi‐algebraic or subanalytic subset of , then there is a linear extension operator such that is semi‐algebraic (subanalytic) whenever f is semi‐algebraic (subanalytic).     

Approximation of analytical functions by k-positive linear operators in the closed domain

This work treats the problem of convergence for the sequences of linear \(k\) -positive operators on a space of functions that are analytic in a closed domain. By convergence in this space, we mean a uniform convergence in a closed domain that contains the original domain strictly inside itself, while the linear \(k\) -positive operators are naturally associated with Faber polynomials related to the considered domain. Until now, this problem has been solved in the space of functions analytic in an open bounded domain with the topology of compact convergence.

Universality of holomorphic functions bounded on closed sets

In this note, the existence of translation-universal entire functions which are bounded on certain closed subsets is characterized in terms of topological and geometrical properties of such subsets. Corresponding results are also stated in the space of holomorphic functions on the unit disk and in the space of harmonic functions on the plane. Moreover, it is shown the existence of entire functions which are bounded on many rays and, simultaneously, are universal with respect to a prescribed infinite-order differential operator.
