“…Most notably, a series of papers by Slepian et al [25,19,26] and the recent works by Xiao and Rokhlin et al [33,32,24,22] have shown that the PSWFs are a natural and optimal apparatus for approximating bandlimited functions. Recently, there has been a growing interest in developing numerical methods using PSWFs as basis functions, which include in particular the PSWF wavelets [31,30,29] and the PSWF spectral/spectral-element methods [7,8,3,10,18,17,27].…”
