Opis

This book contains refereed papers which were presented at the Second International Dortmund Meeting on Approximation Theory (IDoMAT a ~98) at Haus Bommerholz, the conference center of Dortmund University, during the week of February 23a "27, 1998. At this conference 50 researchers and specialists from Bulgaria, China, France, Great Britain, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Romania, South Africa and Germany participated and described new developments in the fields of univariate and multivariate approximation theory. The papers cover topics such as radial basis functions, bivariate spline interpolation, subdivision algorithms, multilevel interpolation, multivariate triangular Bernstein bases, PadA(c) approximation, comonotone polynomial approximation, weighted and unweighted polynomial approximation, adaptive approximation, approximation operators of binomial type, quasi-interpolants, generalized convexity and Peano kernel techniques.
This research has applications in areas such as computer-aided geometric design, as applied in engineering and medical technology (e.g. computerized tomography).
