A Dual Approach To Constrained Interpolation From A Convex Subset Of Hilbert Space, Frank Deutsch, Wu Li, Joseph D. Ward

Mathematics & Statistics Faculty Publications

Many interesting and important problems of best approximationare included in (or can be reduced to) one of the followingtype: in a Hilbert spaceX, find the best approximationPK(x) to anyx∈Xfrom the setK≔C∩A−1(b),whereCis a closed convex subset ofX,Ais a bounded linearoperator fromXinto a finite-dimensional Hilbert spaceY, andb∈Y. The main point of this paper is to show thatPK(x)isidenticaltoPC(x+A*y …
