Orthogonal polynomials and three-term recurrence relationsEngelbrecht, Kevin Peter January 1991 (has links)
A research report submitted to the Faculty of Science of the University of the
Witwatersrand, in partial fufillment of the degree of Master of Science,
Johannesburg 1991. / Orthogonal polynomials have had a long history. They have featured in the work of
Legendre on planetary motion, continued fractions of Stieltjes, mechanical quadrature of
Gauss etc.
After the publication of 'Orthogonal Polynomials' by Gabor Szego in 1938 relatively little
was published on orthogonal polynomials. This changed in the 1970's when increased
interest in approximation theory brought about by the incredible upsurge in the use of the
computer in the sciences occurred. [Abbreviated Abstract. Open document to view full version] / MT2017

Some contributions to the theory and application of polynomial approximationPhillips, George McArtney January 1969 (has links)
The fundamental theorem, as far as this work is concerned, is Weierstrass' theorem (1885) on the approximability of continuous functions by polynomials. Since the time of Weierstrass (1815-97) and his equally important contemporary Chebyshev (1821-94), the topic of approximation has grown enormously into a subject of considerable interest to both pure and applied mathematicians. The subject matter of this thesis, being exclusively concerned with polynomial approximations to a single-valued, function of one real variable, is on the side of 'applied' side of approximation theory. The first chapter lists the definitions and theorems required subsequently. Chapter is devoted to estimates for the maximum error in minimax polynomial approximations. Extensions of this are used to obtain crude error estimates for cubic spline approximations. The following chapter extends the minimax results to deal also with best L[sub]p polynomial approximations, which include beat least squares (L2) and best modulus of integral (L1) approximations as special cases. Chapter 4 is different in character. It is on the practical problem of approximating to convex or nearly convex data.

Polynomial interpolation on a triangular regionYahaya, Daud January 1994 (has links)
It is well known that given f there is a unique polynomial of degree at most n which interpolates f on the standard triangle with uniform nodes (i, j), i, j ≥ 0, i + j ≤n. This leads us to the study of polynomial interpolation on a "triangular" domain with the nodes, S = {([i], [j]): i, j ≥ 0, i + j ≤n}, [k] = [k][sub]q = (1-qk)/(1-q), q > 0, which includes the standard triangle as a special case. In Chapter 2 of this thesis we derive a forward difference formula (of degree at most n) in the x and y directions for the interpolating polynomial P[sub]n on S. We also construct a Lagrange form of an interpolating polynomial which uses hyperbolas (although its coefficients are of degree up to 2n) and discuss a Neville-Aitken algorithm. In Chapter 3 we derive the Newton formula for the interpolating polynomial P[sub]n on the set of distinct points {(xi, y[sub]j): i, j ≥ 0, i + j ≤n}. In particular if xi = [i][sub]p and y[sub]j = [j]q, we show that Newton's form of P[sub]n reduces to a forward difference formula. We show further that we can express the interpolating polynomial on S itself in a Lagrange form and although its coefficients Ln/ij are not as simple as those of the first Lagrange form, they all have degree n. Moreover, Ln/ij can all be expressed in terms of Lm/0,0, 0 ≤ m ≤ n. In Chapter 4 we show that P[sub]n has a limit when both p, q → 0. We then verify that the interpolation properties of the limit form depend on the appropriate partial derivatives of f(x, y). In Chapter 5 we study integration rules I[sub]n of interpolatory type on the triangle S[sub] = {(x, y): 0 ≤ x ≤y ≤ [n]). For 1 ≤ n ≤5, we calculate the weights wn/ij for I[sub]n in terms of the parameter q and study certain general properties which govern wn/ij on S[sub]n. Finally, Chapter 6 deals with the behaviour of the Lebesgue functions λ[sub]n(x, y; q) and the corresponding Lebesgue constant. We prove a property concerning where λ[sub]n takes the value 1 at points other than the interpolation nodes. We also analyse the discontinuity of the directional derivative of λ[sub]n on S[sub]n.

Some aspects of the Jacobian conjecture : the geometry of automorphisms of C2Ali, A. Hamid A. Hussain January 1987 (has links)
We consider the affine varieties which arise by considering invertible polynomial maps from C2 to itself of less than or equal to a given-degree. These varieties arise naturally in the investigation of the long-standing Jacobian Conjecture. We start with some calculations in the lower degree cases. These calculations provide a proof of the Jacobian conjecture in these cases and suggest how the investigation in the higher degree cases should proceed. We then show how invertible polynomial maps can be decomposed as products of what we call triangular maps and we are able to prove a uniqueness result which gives a stronger version of Jung's theorem [j] which is one of the most important results in this area. Our proof also gives a new derivation of Jung's theorem from Segre's lemma. We give a different decomposition of an invertible polynomial map as a composition of "irreducible maps" and we are able to write down standard forms for these irreducibles. We use these standard forms to give a description of the structure of the varieties of invertible maps. We consider some interesting group actions on our varieties and show how these fit in with the structure we describe. Finally, we look at the problem of identifying polynomial maps of finite order. Our description of the structure of the above varieties allows us to solve this problem completely and we are able to show that the only elements of finite order are those which arise from conjugating linear elements of finite order.
