On one estimate of divided differences and its applications

Ukr. Mat. Zh. - 2019. - 71, № 2. - pp. 230-245

We give an estimate of the general divided differences $[x_0, ..., x_m; f]$, where some points xi are allowed to coalesce (in this case, $f$ is assumed to be sufficiently smooth). This estimate is then applied to significantly strengthen the celebrated Whitney and Marchaud inequalities and their generalization to the Hermite interpolation. For example, one of the numerous corollaries of this estimate is the fact that, given a function $f \in C(r)(I)$ and a set $Z = \{ z_j\}^{\mu}_{j=0}$ such that $z_{j+1} - z_j \geq \lambda | I|$ for all $0 \leq j \leq \mu 1$, where $I := [z_0, z_{\mu} ], | I|$ is the length of $I$, and $\lambda$ is a positive number, the Hermite polynomial $\scrL (\cdot ; f;Z)$ of degree $\leq r\mu + \mu + r$ satisfying the equality $\scrL (j)(z\nu ; f;Z) = f(j)(z\nu )$ for all $0 \leq \nu \leq \mu$ and $0 \leq j \leq r$ approximates $f$ so that, for all $x \in I$, $$| f(x) \scr L (x; f;Z)| \leq C (\mathrm{d}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{s}\mathrm{t} (x,Z))^{r+1} \int^{2| I|}_{dist (x,Z)}\frac{\omega_{m-r}(f^{(r)}, t, I)}{t^2}dt,$$ where $m := (r + 1)(\mu + 1), C = C(m, \lambda )$ and $\mathrm{d}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{s}\mathrm{t} (x,Z) := \mathrm{m}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{n}0\leq j\leq \mu | x zj |$.

On moduli of smoothness with Jacobi weights

Ukr. Mat. Zh. - 2018. - 70, № 3. - pp. 379-403

We introduce the moduli of smoothness with Jacobi weights $(1 x)\alpha (1+x)\beta$ for functions in the Jacobi weighted spaces $L_p[ 1, 1],\; 0 < p \leq \infty$. These moduli are used to characterize the smoothness of (the derivatives of) functions in the weighted spaces $L_p$. If $1 \leq p \leq \infty$, then these moduli are equivalent to certain weighted $K$-functionals (and so they are equivalent to certain weighted Ditzian – Totik moduli of smoothness for these $p$), while for $0 < p < 1$ they are equivalent to certain “Realization functionals”.
