Recent Progress in Multivariate Approximation 4th International Conference, Witten-Bommerholz (Germany), September 2000

This volume presents the main results of the 4th International Conference on Multivariate Approximation, which was held at Witten-Bommerholz, September 24-29, 2000. Nineteen selected, peer-reviewed contributions cover recent topics in constructive approximation on varieties, approximation by solutions of partial differential equations, application of Riesz bases and frames, multiwavelets and subdivision. Features and Topics: interpolation and approximation on compact sets, kergin interpolationerror asymptoticsradial basis functionsenergy minimizing configurations on the spherequadrature and cubature formulaeharmonic functions near a zeroblending functionsframes and approximation of inverse frame operators The book is an essential resource for researchers and graduates in applied mathematics, computer science and geophysics who are interested in the state-of-the-art developments in multivariate approximation.Haussmann, Werner is the author of 'Recent Progress in Multivariate Approximation 4th International Conference, Witten-Bommerholz (Germany), September 2000' with ISBN 9783764365059 and ISBN 3764365056.
