Theory Appl. 18(2): 1-32 (2002), available at: http://e-archivo.uc3m.es/handle/10016/6483MR#: MR2047389 (2005k:42062)Zbl#: Zbl 1081.42024In this paper we present a definition of Sobolev spaces with respect to general measures, prove some useful technical results, some of them generalizations of classical results with Lebesgue measure and find general conditions under which these spaces are complete. These results have important consequences in approximation theory. We also find conditions under which the evaluation operator is bounded.Research by first (J.M.R.), third (E.R.) and fourth (D.P.) authors was partially supported by a grant from DGI (BFM 2000-0206-C04-01), Spain.Publicad
Approximation theory for weighted Sobolev spaces on curves
17 pages, no figures.-- MSC2000 codes: 41A10, 46E35, 46G10.MR#: MR1882649 (2003c:42002)In this paper we present a definition of weighted Sobolev spaces on curves and find general conditions under which the spaces are complete. We also prove the density of the polynomials in these spaces for non-closed compact curves and, finally, we find conditions under which the multiplication operator is bounded on the completion of polynomials. These results have applications
to the study of zeroes and asymptotics of Sobolev orthogonal polynomials.Research of V. Álvarez, D. Pestana and J.M. Rodríguez partially supported by a grant from

Rapid polynomial approximation in -spaces with Freud weights on the real line
The weights form a subclass
of Freud weights on the real line. Primarily from a functional analytic angle,
we investigate the subspace of consisting
of those elements that can be rapidly approximated by polynomials. This
subspace has a natural Fr\'echet topology, in which it is isomorphic to the
space of rapidly decreasing sequences. We show that it consists of smooth
functions and obtain concrete results on its topology. For there is
a complete and elementary description of this topological vector space in terms
of the Schwartz functions.Comment: 18 page
Multipoint Schur algorithm and orthogonal rational functions: convergence properties, I
Classical Schur analysis is intimately connected to the theory of orthogonal
polynomials on the circle [Simon, 2005]. We investigate here the connection
between multipoint Schur analysis and orthogonal rational functions.
Specifically, we study the convergence of the Wall rational functions via the
development of a rational analogue to the Szeg\H o theory, in the case where
the interpolation points may accumulate on the unit circle. This leads us to
generalize results from [Khrushchev,2001], [Bultheel et al., 1999], and yields
asymptotics of a novel type.Comment: a preliminary version, 39 pages; some changes in the Introduction,
