Regularity of generalized Daubechies wavelets reproducing exponential polynomials

N. Dyn, O. Kounchev, D. Levin et al.

We investigate non-stationary orthogonal wavelets based on a non-stationary interpolatory subdivision scheme reproducing a given set of exponentials. The construction is analogous to the construction of Daubechies wavelets using the subdivision scheme of Deslauriers-Dubuc. The main result is the smoothness of these Daubechies type wavelets.

On a new method for controlling exponential processes

O. Kounchev, H. Render

Unlike the classical polynomial case there has not been invented up to very recently a tool similar to the Bernstein-Bezier representation which would allow us to control the behavior of the exponential polynomials. The exponential analog to the classical Bernstein polynomials has been introduced in a recent authors' paper which appeared in Constructive Approximations, and this analog retains all basic properties of the classical Bernstein polynomials. The main purpose of the present paper is to contribute in this direction, by proving some important properties of the "Bernstein exponential operator" which has been introduced. We also fix our attention upon some special type of exponential polynomials which are particularly important for the further development of theory of representation of Multivariate data.

Fast algorithms for interpolation with clamped $L$-splines of order four

O. Kounchev, H. Render, G. Simeonov et al.

Interpolation and smoothing using cubic and generalized splines are fundamental tools in data analysis and statistical modeling. Recently, fast computational algorithms were developed for natural $L$-splines of order four, which arise as piecewise solutions to the differential operator $L_ξ^2 = (\frac{d^2}{dt^2} - ξ^2)^2$. In this paper, we extend this mathematical framework to the important case of clamped (or complete) boundary conditions, where the first derivatives at the interval endpoints are prescribed. We explicitly construct the governing linear system for the interpolation problem and mathematically prove that the resulting tridiagonal matrix is strictly row diagonally dominant, thereby guaranteeing its invertibility and the numerical stability of the fast algorithm. The proposed method is implemented in MATLAB. Furthermore, the developed clamped $L$-splines provide a foundation for constructing multivariate clamped polysplines, which serve as a promising alternative to Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) for solving partial differential equations in Mathematical Physics.

Multidimensional Chebyshev spaces, hierarchy of infinite-dimensional spaces and Kolmogorov-Gelfand widths

O. Kounchev

Recently the theory of widths of Kolmogorov (especially of Gelfand widths) has received a great deal of interest due to its close relationship with the newly born area of Compressed Sensing. It has been realized that widths reflect properly the sparsity of the data in Signal Processing. However fundamental problems of the theory of widths in multidimensional Theory of Functions remain untouched, and their progress will have a major impact over analogous problems in the theory of multidimensional Signal Analysis. The present paper has three major contributions: 1. We solve the longstanding problem of finding multidimensional generalization of the Chebyshev systems: we introduce Multidimensional Chebyshev spaces, based on solutions of higher order elliptic equation, as a generalization of the one-dimensional Chebyshev systems, more precisely of the ECT--systems. 2. Based on that we introduce a new hierarchy of infinite-dimensional spaces for functions defined in multidimensional domains; we define corresponding generalization of Kolmogorov's widths. 3. We generalize the original results of Kolmogorov by computing the widths for special "ellipsoidal" sets of functions defined in multidimensional domains.

A new cubature formula with weight functions on the disc, with error estimates

O. Kounchev, H. Render

We introduce a new type of cubature formula for the evaluation of an integral over the disk with respect to a weight function. The method is based on an analysis of the Fourier series of the weight function and a reduction of the bivariate integral into an infinite sum of univariate integrals. Several experimental results show that the accuracy of the method is superior to standard cubature formula on the disk. Error estimates provide the theoretical basis for the good performance of the new algorithm.
