Constrained Kolmogorov widths
Ronald DeVore, Guergana Petrova, Jonathan W. Siegel +1
The main theme of approximation theory is to understand how well a general function can be approximated by a simpler function such as a polynomial or spline. In many applic…
A note on best n-term approximation for generalized Wiener classes
Ronald DeVore, Guergana Petrova, Przemyslaw Wojtaszczyk
We determine the best n-term approximation of generalized Wiener model classes in a Hilbert space . This theory is then applied to several special cases.
Lipschitz widths
Guergana Petrova, Przemyslaw Wojtaszczyk
This paper introduces a measure, called Lipschitz widths, of the optimal performance possible of certain nonlinear methods of approximation. It discusses their relation to entropy…
Optimal Stable Nonlinear Approximation
Albert Cohen, Ronald DeVore, Guergana Petrova +1
While it is well known that nonlinear methods of approximation can often perform dramatically better than linear methods, there are still questions on how to measure the optimal pe…
