Best Uniform Rational Approximation of x on [0, 1]

A method to obtain the best uniform polynomial approximation for the family of rational function

In this article, by using Chebyshev’s polynomials and Chebyshev’s expansion, we obtain the best uniform polynomial approximation out of P2n to a class of rational functions of the form (ax2+c)-1 on any non symmetric interval [d,e]. Using the obtained approximation, we provide the best uniform polynomial approximation to a class of rational functions of the form (ax2+bx+c)-1 for both cases b2-4a...

The best uniform polynomial approximation of two classes of rational functions

In this paper we obtain the explicit form of the best uniform polynomial approximations out of Pn of two classes of rational functions using properties of Chebyshev polynomials. In this way we present some new theorems and lemmas. Some examples will be given to support the results.

BEST UNIFORM RATIONAL APPROXIMATION OF xa ON [0, 1]

A strong error estimate for the uniform rational approximation of xa on [0, 1] is given, and its proof is sketched. Let E„n(xa, [0, 1]) denote the minimal approximation error in the uniform norm. Then it is shown that lim e2*^"Enn(xa , [0, 1]) = 41+a| sin7ta| n—»oo holds true for each a > 0 .

UNIFORM RATIONAL APPROXIMATION OF x α ON [ 0 , 1 ]

where ‖ · ‖K denotes the sup norm on K ⊆ R. It is well known that the best approximant r∗ mn exists and is unique within Rmn (cf. [Me, §§9.1, 9.2] or [Ri, §5.1]). The unique existence also holds in the special case (n = 0) of best polynomial approximants. Since fα(x) := |x|α is an even function on [−1, 1], the same is true for its unique approximant r∗ mn = r ∗ mn(fα, [−1, 1]; ·), and consequen...
