Abstract

A general method for constructing quasi-interpolation operators based on B-splines is developed. Given a B-spline @f in R^s, s=1, normalized by @?"i"@?"Z"^"s@f(@?-i)=1, the classical structure Q(f)@?@?"i"@?"Z"^"s@lf(@?+i)@f(@?-i), for a quasi-interpolation operator Q is considered. A minimization problem is derived from an estimate of the quasi-interpolation error associated with Q when @lf is a linear combination of values of f at points in some neighbourhood of the support of @f; or a linear combination of values of f and some of its derivatives at some points in this set; or a linear combination of weighted mean values of the function to be approximated. That linear functional is defined to produce a quasi-interpolant exact on the space of polynomials of maximal total degree included in the space spanned by the integer translates of @f. The solution of that minimization problem is characterized in terms of specific splines which do not depend on @l but only on @f.
