We collect some new results relative to the study of the spectral analysis of
matrices in Galerkin methods based on generalized B-splines with high
smoothness
ON INTERPOLATION BY ALMOST TRIGONOMETRIC SPLINES
The existence and uniqueness of an interpolating periodic spline defined on an equidistant mesh by the linear differential operator with are reproved under the final restriction on the step of the mesh. Under the same restriction, sharp estimates of the error of approximation by such interpolating periodic splines are obtained
Spectral analysis of matrices in Galerkin methods based on generalized B-splines with high smoothness
We present a first step towards the spectral analysis of matrices arising from IgA Galerkin methods based on hyperbolic and trigonometric GB-splines. Second order differential problems with constant coefficients are considered and discretized by means of sequences of both nested and non-nested spline spaces. We prove that there always exists an asymptotic eigenvalue distribution which can be compactly described by a symbol, just like in the polynomial case. There is a complete similarity between the symbol expressions in the hyperbolic, trigonometric and polynomial cases. This results in similar spectral features of the corresponding matrices. We also analyze the IgA discretization based on trigonometric GB-splines for the eigenvalue problem related to the univariate Laplace operator. We prove that, for non-nested spaces, the phase parameter can be exploited to improve the spectral approximation with respect to the polynomial case. As part of the analysis, we derive several Fourier properties of cardinal GB-splines
