Abstract

Reade[ll] has shown that positive definite kernels K(x, t) which satisfy a Lipschitz condition of order a on a bounded region have eigenvalues which are asymptotically O(l/n1+α). In this paper we extend this result to positive definite kernels whose symmetric derivative Krr(x, t) ≡ ∆2rK(x, t)/∆xr∆tr is in Lipα and establish λn(K) = O(l/n2r+1+α). If ∆Krr/∆t is in Lipα, the anticipated asymptotic estimate is also derived. The proofs use a well-known result of Chang [2], recently rederived by Ha [5], and estimates based upon finite rank approximations to the kernels in question. In these latter estimates we employ the familiar piecewise linear ‘hat’ basis functions of approximation theory.
