Exact values of Kolmogorov widths of classes of Poisson integrals

Abstract

We prove that the Poisson kernel $P_{q,β}(t)=\sum\limits_{k=1}^{\infty}q^k\cos(kt-\dfrac{βπ}{2})$, ${q\in(0,1)}$, $β\in\mathbb{R}$, satisfies Kushpel's condition $C_{y,2n}$ beginning with a number $n_q$ where $n_q$ is the smallest number $n\geq9$, for which the following inequality is satisfied: $$ \dfrac{43}{10(1-q)}q^{\sqrt{n}}+\dfrac{160}{57(n-\sqrt{n})}\; \dfrac{q}{(1-q)^2}\leq (\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{2q}{(1+q^2)(1-q)})(\dfrac{1-q}{1+q})^{\frac {4}{1-q^2}}. $$ As a consequence, for all $n\geq n_q$ we obtain lower bounds for Kolmogorov widths in the space $C$ of classes $C_{β,\infty}^q$ of Poisson integrals of functions that belong to the unit ball in the space $L_\infty$. The obtained estimates coincide with the best uniform approximations by trigonometric polynomials for these classes. As a result, we obtain exact values for widths of classes $C_{β,\infty}^q$ and show that subspaces of trigonometric polynomials of order $n-1$ are optimal for widths of dimension $2n$.
