Approximation Theory and Applications: Piecewise Linear and Generalized Functions presents the main provisions of approximation theory, and considers existing and new methods for approximating piecewise linear and generalized functions, widely used to solve problems related to mathematical modeling of systems, processes, and phenomena in fields ranging from engineering to economics. The widespread use of piecewise linear and generalized functions is explained by the simplicity of their structure. However, challenges often arise when constructing solutions over the entire domain of these functions, requiring the use special mathematical methods to put theory into practice. This book first offers a first full foundation in approximation theory as it relates to piecewise linear and generalized functions, followed by staged methods to resolve common problems in practice, with applications examined across structural mechanics, medicine, quantum theory, signal theory, semiconductor theory, mechanical engineering, heat engineering, and other fields. Later chapters consider numerical verification of approximation methods, and approximation theory as the basis for new macroeconomic theory with impulse and jump characteristics. Each chapter includes questions for review and sample problems, accompanied by a separate Solutions Manual hosted for instructor access.
