Spaces of variable smoothness and integrability: Characterizations by local means and ball means of differences

We study the spaces of Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin type with variable smoothness and integrability as introduced recently by Almeida & Hästö and Diening, Hästö & Roudenko. Both scales cover many classical spaces with fixed exponents as well as function spaces of variable smoothness and function spaces of variable integrability. These spaces have been introduced by Fourier analytical tools, as the decomposition of unity. Surprisingly, our main result states that these spaces also allow a characterization in the time-domain with the help of classical ball means of differences. To that end, we first prove a local means characterization for them with the help of the so-called Peetre maximal functions. Our results do also hold for 2-microlocal function spaces with variable integrability which are a slight generalization of generalized smoothness spaces and spaces of variable smoothness.

Learning Functions of Few Arbitrary Linear Parameters in High Dimensions

Let us assume that $f$ is a continuous function defined on the unit ball of $\mathbb R^d$, of the form $f(x) = g (A x)$, where $A$ is a $k \times d$ matrix and $g$ is a function of $k$ variables for $k \ll d$. We are given a budget $m \in \mathbb N$ of possible point evaluations $f(x_i)$, $i=1,...,m$, of $f$, which we are allowed to query in order to construct a uniform approximating function. Under certain smoothness and variation assumptions on the function $g$, and an {\it arbitrary} choice of the matrix $A$, we present in this paper 1. a sampling choice of the points $\{x_i\}$ drawn at random for each function approximation; 2. algorithms (Algorithm 1 and Algorithm 2) for computing the approximating function, whose complexity is at most polynomial in the dimension $d$ and in the number $m$ of points. Due to the arbitrariness of $A$, the choice of the sampling points will be according to suitable random distributions and our results hold with overwhelming probability. Our approach uses tools taken from the {\it compressed sensing} framework, recent Chernoff bounds for sums of positive-semidefinite matrices, and classical stability bounds for invariant subspaces of singular value decompositions.

A note on the spaces of variable integrability and summability of Almeida and Hästö

We address an open problem posed recently by Almeida and Hästö in \cite{AlHa10}. They defined the spaces $\ellqp$ of variable integrability and summability and showed that $\|\cdot|\ellqp\|$ is a norm if $q$ is constant almost everywhere or if $\esssup_{x\in\R^n}1/p(x)+1/q(x)\le 1$. Nevertheless, the natural conjecture (expressed also in \cite{AlHa10}) is that the expression is a norm if $p(x),q(x)\ge 1$ almost everywhere. We show, that $\|\cdot|\ellqp\|$ is a norm, if $1\le q(x)\le p(x)$ for almost every $x\in\R^n.$ Furthermore, we construct an example of $p(x)$ and $q(x)$ with $\min(p(x),q(x))\ge 1$ for every $x\in\R^n$ such that the triangle inequality does not hold for $\|\cdot|\ellqp\|$.

Particle systems and kinetic equations modeling interacting agents in high dimension

In this paper we explore how concepts of high-dimensional data compression via random projections onto lower-dimensional spaces can be applied for tractable simulation of certain dynamical systems modeling complex interactions. In such systems, one has to deal with a large number of agents (typically millions) in spaces of parameters describing each agent of high dimension (thousands or more). Even with today's powerful computers, numerical simulations of such systems are prohibitively expensive. We propose an approach for the simulation of dynamical systems governed by functions of adjacency matrices in high dimension, by random projections via Johnson-Lindenstrauss embeddings, and recovery by compressed sensing techniques. We show how these concepts can be generalized to work for associated kinetic equations, by addressing the phenomenon of the delayed curse of dimension, known in information-based complexity for optimal numerical integration problems in high dimensions.
