Some Properties of the Diliberto-Straus Algorithms in C(S×T)

  • Chapter

Abstract

The algorithm considered in this paper is due to Diliberto and Straus [2]. It produces, for a given element f ε C(S×T), an element w ε C(S) + C(T) which is a best approximation to f from C(S) + C(T) using the usual supremum norm. We begin with some notation. We will assume S and T are compact Hausdorff spaces. The linear subspace C(S) + C(T) will be denoted on occasion by W. Note that an obvious interpretation of C(S), C(T) as subspaces of C(S×T) must be made, and that with this interpretation W is closed.
