Spline Functions and Multivariate Interpolations

This volume provides a comprehensive introduction to the theory of spline functions. Emphasis is given to new developments, such as the general Birkhoff-type interpolation, the extremal properties of splines, their prominent role in the optimal recovery of functions, and multivariate interpolation by polynomials and splines. The book has thirteen chapters dealing, respectively, with interpolation by algebraic polynomials, the space of splines, B-splines, interpolation by spline functions, natural spline functions, perfect splines, monosplines, periodic splines, multivariate B-splines and truncated powers, multivariate spline functions and divided differences, box splines, multivariate mean value interpolation, multivariate polynomial interpolations arising by hyperplanes, and multivariate pointwise interpolation. Some of the results described are presented as exercises and hints are given for their solution. For researchers and graduate students whose work involves approximation theory.

A NATO Advanced Study Institute on Approximation Theory and Spline Functions was held at Memorial University of Newfoundland during August 22-September 2, 1983. This volume consists of the Proceedings of that Institute. These Proceedings include the main invited talks and contributed papers given during the Institute. The aim of these lectures was to bring together Mathematicians, Physicists and Engineers working in the field. The lectures covered a wide range including ~1ultivariate Approximation, Spline Functions, Rational Approximation, Applications of Elliptic Integrals and Functions in the Theory of Approximation, and Pade Approximation. We express our sincere thanks to Professors E. W. Cheney, J. Meinguet, J. M. Phillips and H. Werner, members of the International Advisory Committee. We also extend our thanks to the main speakers and the invi ted speakers, whose contri butions made these Proceedings complete. The Advanced Study Institute was financed by the NATO Scientific Affairs Division. We express our thanks for the generous support. We wish to thank members of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at MeMorial University who willingly helped with the planning and organizing of the Institute. Special thanks go to Mrs. Mary Pike who helped immensely in the planning and organizing of the Institute, and to Miss Rosalind Genge for her careful and excellent typing of the manuscript of these Proceedings.

This classic work continues to offer a comprehensive treatment of the theory of univariate and tensor-product splines. It will be of interest to researchers and students working in applied analysis, numerical analysis, computer science, and engineering. The material covered provides the reader with the necessary tools for understanding the many applications of splines in such diverse areas as approximation theory, computer-aided geometric design, curve and surface design and fitting, image processing, numerical solution of differential equations, and increasingly in business and the biosciences. This new edition includes a supplement outlining some of the major advances in the theory since 1981, and some 250 new references. It can be used as the main or supplementary text for courses in splines, approximation theory or numerical analysis.
