The estimates of the approximation numbers of the Hardy operator acting in the Lorenz spaces in the case ${\it {\bf \max}(r,s)\leq q}$

In the paper conditions are found under which the compact operator $Tf(x)=\varphi(x)\int_0^ xf(\tau)v(\tau)\,d\tau,$ $x>0,$ acting in weighted Lorentz spaces $T:L^{r,s}_{v} (\mathbb{R^+})\to L^{p,q}_{\omega}(\mathbb{R^+})$ in the domain $1<\max (r,s)\le \min(p,q)<\infty,$ belongs to operator ideals $\mathfrak{S}^{(a)}_\alpha$ and $\mathfrak{E}_\alpha$, $0<\alpha<\infty$. And estimates are also obtained for the quasinorms of operator ideals in terms of integral expressions which depend on operator weight functions.

Function Values Are Enough for $$L_2$$-Approximation

We study the $$L_2$$ L 2 -approximation of functions from a Hilbert space and compare the sampling numbers with the approximation numbers. The sampling number $$e_n$$ e n is the minimal worst-case error that can be achieved with n function values, whereas the approximation number $$a_n$$ a n is the minimal worst-case error that can be achieved with n pieces of arbitrary linear information (like derivatives or Fourier coefficients). We show that $$\begin{aligned} e_n \,\lesssim \, \sqrt{\frac{1}{k_n} \sum _{j\ge k_n} a_j^2}, \end{aligned}$$ e n ≲ 1 k n ∑ j ≥ k n a j 2 , where $$k_n \asymp n/\log (n)$$ k n ≍ n / log ( n ) . This proves that the sampling numbers decay with the same polynomial rate as the approximation numbers and therefore that function values are basically as powerful as arbitrary linear information if the approximation numbers are square-summable. Our result applies, in particular, to Sobolev spaces $$H^s_\mathrm{mix}(\mathbb {T}^d)$$ H mix s ( T d ) with dominating mixed smoothness $$s>1/2$$ s > 1 / 2 and dimension $$d\in \mathbb {N}$$ d ∈ N , and we obtain $$\begin{aligned} e_n \,\lesssim \, n^{-s} \log ^{sd}(n). \end{aligned}$$ e n ≲ n - s log sd ( n ) . For $$d>2s+1$$ d > 2 s + 1 , this improves upon all previous bounds and disproves the prevalent conjecture that Smolyak’s (sparse grid) algorithm is optimal.

Approximation and entropy numbers of composition operators

We give a survey on approximation numbers of composition operators on the Hardy space, on the disk and on the polydisk, and add corresponding new results on their entropy numbers, revealing how they are different.

Pre-Quasi Simple Banach Operator Ideal Generated by s−Numbers

Let E be a weighted Nakano sequence space or generalized Cesáro sequence space defined by weighted mean and by using s−numbers of operators from a Banach space X into a Banach space Y. We give the sufficient (not necessary) conditions on E such that the components SEX,Y≔T∈LX,Y:snTn=0∞∈E of the class SE form pre-quasi operator ideal, the class of all finite rank operators are dense in the Banach pre-quasi ideal SE, the pre-quasi operator ideal formed by the sequence of approximation numbers is strictly contained for different weights and powers, the pre-quasi Banach Operator ideal formed by the sequence of approximation numbers is small, and finally, the pre-quasi Banach operator ideal constructed by s−numbers is simple Banach space.

Randomized approximation numbers on Besov classes with mixed smoothness

We study the Kolmogorov and the linear approximation numbers of the Besov classes [Formula: see text] with mixed smoothness in the norm of [Formula: see text] in the randomized setting. We first establish two discretization theorems. Then based on them, we determine the exact asymptotic orders of the Kolmogorov and the linear approximation numbers for certain values of the parameters [Formula: see text]. Our results show that the linear randomized methods lead to considerably better rates than those of the deterministic ones for [Formula: see text].

Some properties of pre-quasi operator ideal of type generalized Cesáro sequence space defined by weighted means

Let E be a generalized Cesáro sequence space defined by weighted means and by using s-numbers of operators from a Banach space X into a Banach space Y. We give the sufficient (not necessary) conditions on E such that the components $$\begin{array}{} \displaystyle S_{E}(X, Y):=\Big\{T\in L(X, Y):((s_{n}(T))_{n=0}^{\infty}\in E\Big\}, \end{array}$$ of the class SE form pre-quasi operator ideal, the class of all finite rank operators are dense in the Banach pre-quasi ideal SE, the pre-quasi operator ideal formed by the sequence of approximation numbers is strictly contained for different weights and powers, the pre-quasi Banach Operator ideal formed by the sequence of approximation numbers is small and the pre-quasi Banach operator ideal constructed by s-numbers is simple Banach space. Finally the pre-quasi operator ideal formed by the sequence of s-numbers and this sequence space is strictly contained in the class of all bounded linear operators, whose sequence of eigenvalues belongs to this sequence space.

Operators constructed by means of basic sequences and nuclear matrices

In this work, we establish an approach to constructing compact operators between arbitrary infinite-dimensional Banach spaces without a Schauder basis. For this purpose, we use a countable number of basic sequences for the sake of verifying the result of Morrell and Retherford. We also use a nuclear operator, represented as an infinite-dimensional matrix defined over the space $\ell _{1}$ℓ1 of all absolutely summable sequences. Examples of nuclear operators over the space $\ell _{1}$ℓ1 are given and used to construct operators over general Banach spaces with specific approximation numbers.

An operator ideal generated by Orlicz spaces

Absolutely $$\varphi $$φ-summing operators between Banach spaces generated by Orlicz spaces are investigated. A variant of Pietsch’s domination theorem is proved for these operators and applied to prove vector-valued inequalities. These results are used to prove asymptotic estimates of $$\pi _\varphi $$πφ-summing norms of finite-dimensional operators and also diagonal operators between Banach sequence lattices for a wide class of Orlicz spaces based on exponential convex functions $$\varphi $$φ. The key here is the description of a space of coefficients of the Rademacher series in this class of Orlicz spaces, proved via interpolation methods. As by-product, some absolutely $$\varphi $$φ-summing operators on the Hilbert space $$\ell _2$$ℓ2 are characterized in terms of its approximation numbers.
