ASYMPTOTIC BEHAVIOR OF ECKHOFF＇S METHOD FOR FOURIER SERIES CONVERGENCE ACCELERATION

The current paper considers the problem of recovering a function using a limited number of its Fourier coefficients. Specifically, a method based on Bernoulli-like polynomials suggested and developed by Krylov, Lanczos, Gottlieb and Eckhoff is examined. Asymptotic behavior of approximate calculation of the so-called ＂jumps＂ is studied and asymptotic L2 constants of the rate of convergence of the method are computed.     

Theorems on Shear-Free Perfect Fluids with Their Newtonian Analogues

In this paper we provide fully covariant proofs of some theorems on shear-free perfect fluids. In particular, we explicitly show that any shear-free perfect fluid with the acceleration proportional to the vorticity vector (including the simpler case of vanishing acceleration) must be either non-expanding or non-rotating. We also show that these results are not necessarily true in the Newtonian case, and present an explicit comparison of shear-free dust in Newtonian and relativistic theories in order to see where and why the differences appear.
