We prove a characterization for the Peetre type K-functional on M, a compact twopoint homogeneous space, in terms the rate of approximation of a family of multipliers operator defined to this purpose. This extends the well known results on the spherical setting. The characterization is employed to show that an abstract Hölder condition or finite order of differentiability condition imposed on kernels generating certain operators implies a sharp decay rates for their eigenvalues sequences. The latest is employed to obtain estimates for the Kolmogorov n-width of unit balls in Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space (RKHS).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
