Radial Functions on Compact Support

by M. D. Buhmann

(Report number 1995-13)

Abstract
In this paper, radial basis functions that are compactly supported and give rise to positive definite interpolation matrices for scattered data are discussed. They are related to the well-known thin plate spline radial functions which are highly useful in applications for gridfree approximation methods. Also, encouraging approximation results for the compactly supported radial functions are shown.

Keywords: scalar advection equation, difference scheme,accuracy, stability, order star, algebraic function, Riemann surface
