The Hermite-Birkhoff Problem and Local Spline Approximation
Author:
Abstract: This paper discusses the use of local spline approximations to solve the Hermite-Birkhoff problem. The solution to a specific problem using polynomial and non-polynomial local splines of the third order of approximation is considered. Here we discuss the case when the values of the function u(x) and its derivative u’(x) are given at the nodes of the grid in an alternative way: $$ …,u(x_{j}),u'(x_{(j+1)}),u(x_{(j+2)}),…$$ . Note that when using polynomial and non-polynomial spline approximations, it is possible to obtain acceptable solutions in several interesting cases that are impossible when we use the classical approach. In the case of using local basis splines, many previously unsolvable problems turn out to be solvable. The results of the numerical experiments are presented.
