For researchers in approximation theory and numerical analysis, this provides optimal recovery and integration methods for functions with anisotropic smoothness, though the results are incremental extensions of existing sparse grid and quasi-interpolation techniques.

The paper constructs optimal linear sampling algorithms on sparse grids using B-spline quasi-interpolation for recovering functions from anisotropic Besov spaces, achieving optimal error asymptotics. It also derives optimal cubature formulas for numerical integration with matching asymptotics.

Let $X_n = \{x^j\}_{j=1}^n$ be a set of $n$ points in the $d$-cube $[0,1]^d$, and $Φ_n = \{φ_j\}_{j =1}^n$ a family of $n$ functions on $[0,1]^d$. We consider the approximate recovery functions $f$ on $[0,1]^d$ from the sampled values $f(x^1), ..., f(x^n)$, by the linear sampling algorithm \begin{equation} \nonumber L_n(X_n,Φ_n,f) \ := \ \sum_{j=1}^n f(x^j)φ_j. \end{equation} The error of sampling recovery is measured in the norm of the space $L_q([0,1]^d)$-norm or the energy norm of the isotropic Sobolev sapce $W^γ_q([0,1]^d)$ for $0 < q \le \infty$ and $γ> 0$. Functions $f$ to be recovered are from the unit ball in Besov type spaces of an anisotropic smoothness, in particular, spaces $B^a_{p,θ}$ of a nonuniform mixed smoothness $a \in {\mathbb R}^d_+$, and spaces $B^{α,β}_{p,θ}$ of a "hybrid" of mixed smoothness $α> 0$ and isotropic smoothness $β\in \mathbb R$. We constructed optimal linear sampling algorithms $L_n(X_n^*,Φ_n^*,\cdot)$ on special sparse grids $X_n^*$ and a family $Φ_n^*$ of linear combinations of integer or half integer translated dilations of tensor products of B-splines. We computed the asymptotic of the error of the optimal recovery. This construction is based on a B-spline quasi-interpolation representations of functions in $B^a_{p,θ}$ and $B^{α,β}_{p,θ}$. As consequences we obtained the asymptotic of optimal cubature formulas for numerical integration of functions from the unit ball of these Besov type spaces.
