Approximation numbers = singular values

Author

Summary, in English

This paper introduces a generalisation of the notion of singular value for Hilbert space operators to more general Banach spaces. It is shown that for a simple integral operator of Hardy type the singular values are the eigenvalues of a non-linear Sturm-Liouville equation and coincide with the approximation numbers of the operator. Finally, asymptotic formulas for the singular numbers are deduced. (c) 2006 Published by Elsevier B.V.
