Theorems in approximation theory

Bernstein's theorem (approximation theory)

In approximation theory, Bernstein's theorem is a converse to Jackson's theorem. The first results of this type were proved by Sergei Bernstein in 1912. For approximation by trigonometric polynomials, the result is as follows: Let f: [0, 2π] → C be a 2π-periodic function, and assume r is a natural number, and 0 < α < 1. If there exists a number C(f) > 0 and a sequence of trigonometric polynomials {Pn}n ≥ n0 such that then f = Pn0 + φ, where φ has a bounded r-th derivative which is α-Hölder continuous. (Wikipedia).

Approximating Functions in a Metric Space

Approximations are common in many areas of mathematics from Taylor series to machine learning. In this video, we will define what is meant by a best approximation and prove that a best approximation exists in a metric space. Chapters 0:00 - Examples of Approximation 0:46 - Best Aproximati

Convolutions and Polynomial Approximation

In this video, I intuitively explain and apply some deeper mathematical tools - namely convolutions and approximate identities - to prove the Weierstrass approximation theorem, which roughly states that any continuous function can be approximated by polynomials. I also make connections to

I began by explaining how, in order to work with infinite-dimensional function spaces constructively, we need to use integrals. Then I defined an "integral pair", showed that the Riemann integral on a closed interval is an example, and proved that there is a product operation on integral p
