Sharp Inverse Statements for Kernel Approximation: Superconvergence and Saturation
MCML Authors
Abstract
Abstract
This article establishes sharp inverse and saturation statements for kernel-based approximation using finitely smooth Sobolev kernels on bounded Lipschitz regions. The analysis focuses on the superconvergence regime, for which direct statements have only recently been obtained. The resulting theory yields a one-to-one correspondence between the smoothness of a target function - quantified in terms of power spaces - and the achievable approximation rates by kernel-based approximation. In this way, we extend existing results beyond the escaping-the-native-space regime and provide a unified characterization covering the full scale of admissible smoothness spaces.
