Rate-optimal sparse approximation of compact break-of-scale embeddings (2203.10011v1)

Abstract: The paper is concerned with the sparse approximation of functions having hybrid regularity borrowed from the theory of solutions to electronic Schr\"odinger equations due to Yserentant [43]. We use hyperbolic wavelets to introduce corresponding new spaces of Besov- and Triebel-Lizorkin-type to particularly cover the energy norm approximation of functions with dominating mixed smoothness. Explicit (non-)adaptive algorithms are derived that yield sharp dimension-independent rates of convergence.
