Replacing the nested sequence of ""nite" dimensional subspaces by the nested sequence of "closed" subspaces in the classical Bernstein lethargy theorem, we obtain a version of this theorem for the space B(X; Y) of all bounded linear maps. Using this result and some properties of diagonal operators, we investigate conditions under which a suitable pair of Banach spaces form an exact Bernstein pa...

A Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand resolution for arbitrary Kac-Moody algebras and arbitrary subsets of the set of simple roots is proven. Moreover, quantum group analogs of the Bernstein-Gelfand-Gelfand resolution for symmetrizable Kac-Moody algebras are established. For quantized enveloping algebras with fixed deformation parameter q ∈ C \ {0} exactness is proven for all q which are not a root of un...

Copulas are extensively used for dependence modeling. In many cases the data does not reveal how the dependence can be modeled using a particular parametric copula. Nonparametric copulas do not share this problem since they are entirely data based. This paper proposes nonparametric estimation of the density copula for α−mixing data using Bernstein polynomials. We study the asymptotic properties...

It is well known that in two or more variables Bernstein polynomi-als do not preserve convexity. Here we introduce two variations, one stronger than the classical notion, the other one weaker, which are preserved. Moreover, a weaker suucient condition for the monotony of subsequent Bernstein polynomials is given. linearly independent, in the course of which d has to be greater than or equal to ...

In this paper, using the concept of A -statistical convergence for double sequences, we investigate a Korovkin-type approximation theorem for sequences of positive linear operator on the space of all continuous real valued functions defined on any compact subset of the real two-dimensional space. Then we display an application which shows that our new result is stronger than its classical versi...

In this paper, operational matrix method based upon the Bernstein polynomials is proposed to solve the variable order fractional integro-differential equations in the Caputo derivative sense. We derive the Bernstein polynomials operational matrix of fractional order integration and introduce the product operational matrix of Bernstein polynomials. A truncated the Bernstein polynomials series to...

We generalize Griffiths’ theorem on the Hodge filtration of the primitive cohomology of a smooth projective hypersurface, using the local Bernstein-Sato polynomials, the V -filtration of Kashiwara and Malgrange along the hypersurface and the Brieskorn module of the global defining equation of the hypersurface.

We generalize the notions of user equilibrium and system optimum to nonatomic congestion games with stochastic demands. We establish upper bounds on the price of anarchy for three different settings of link cost functions and demand distributions, namely, (a) affine cost functions and general distributions, (b) polynomial cost functions and general positive-valued distributions, and (c) polynom...

This paper presents a nonnegative polynomial that cannot be represented with nonnegative coefficients in the simplicial Bernstein basis by subdividing the standard simplex. The example shows that Bernstein Theorem cannot be extended to certificates of nonnegativity for polynomials with zeros at isolated points.

One of the greatest pleasures in mathematics is the surprising connections that often appear between apparently disconnected ideas and theories. Some particularly striking instances exist in the interaction between probability theory and analysis. One of the simplest is the elegant proof of the Weierstrass approximation theorem by S. Bernstein [2]: on the surface, this states that if f : [0, 1]...
