On the Müntz rational approximation rate

Müntz Systems and Orthogonal Müntz - Legendre Polynomials

The Müntz-Legendre polynomials arise by orthogonalizing the Müntz system {xxo, xx¡, ...} with respect to Lebesgue measure on [0, 1]. In this paper, differential and integral recurrence formulae for the Müntz-Legendre polynomials are obtained. Interlacing and lexicographical properties of their zeros are studied, and the smallest and largest zeros are universally estimated via the zeros of Lague...

Diophantine approximation on rational quadrics

We compute the Hausdorff dimension of sets of very well approximable vectors on rational quadrics. We use ubiquitous systems and the geometry of locally symmetric spaces. As a byproduct we obtain the Hausdorff dimension of the set of rays with a fixed maximal singular direction, which move away into one end of a locally symmetric space at linear depth, infinitely many times.

Rational Approximation on the Positive Real Axis

Introduction Rational Chebyshev approximation to reciprocals of certain entire functions by reciprocals of polynomials on the positive real axis has recently attracted the attention of many mathematicians . By developing certain new methods of approach we successfully attacked ([3]-[6]) some of the related problems . This paper is a continuation of our earlier papers ([3]-[6] ) . The results of...
