Random sampling and polynomial-free interpolation by Generalized MultiQuadrics

A. Sommariva, M. Vianello

TL;DR

This work extends polynomial-free unisolvence results to Generalized MultiQuadrics (GMQ) in scattered interpolation by proving that the interpolation matrix $V_n=[ ext{φ}_j( extbf{x}_i)]$, where $ ext{φ}_j( extbf{x})= ext{φ}( orm{ extbf{x}- extbf{x}_j}_2)$ and $ ext{φ}(r)=(1+(ε r)^{2k})^{β}$ with order $ ext{⌈}β ext{⌉}>1$, is almost surely nonsingular under random sampling in any dimension. The proof embeds the determinant into a complex-analytic framework, writing $f( extbf{x})= ext{det}(A( extbf{x}))=- ext{det}(V_{n-1}) ext{φ}_n( extbf{x})^2+a( extbf{x}) ext{φ}_n( extbf{x})+b( extbf{x})$, and exploiting a branch point at $z_*= rac{1}{ε}e^{i rac{π}{2k}}$ to show $f$ cannot vanish identically. Consequently, the zero set of a nonzero analytic function has Lebesgue measure zero, yielding $ ext{prob}( ext{det}(V_{n+1})=0)=0$ and completing the induction. The result broadens polynomial-free unisolvence to the GMQ family and encompasses Buhmann–Ortmann generalizations, enabling stable, polynomial-free interpolation in multivariate settings without polynomial augmentation.

Abstract

We prove that interpolation matrices for Generalized MultiQuadrics (GMQ) of order greater than one are almost surely nonsingular without polynomial addition, in any dimension and with any continuous random distribution of sampling points. We also include a new class of generalized MultiQuadrics recently proposed by Buhmann and Ortmann.
