An Introduction to the Theory of Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces by Vern I Paulsen

An Introduction to the Theory of Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces by Vern I Paulsen

Reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces have developed into an important tool in many areas, especially statistics and machine learning, and they play a valuable role in complex analysis, probability, group representation theory, and the theory of integral operators. This unique text offers a unified overview of the topic, providing detailed examples of applications, as well as covering the fundamental underlying theory, including chapters on interpolation and approximation, Cholesky and Schur operations on kernels, and vector-valued spaces. Self-contained and accessibly written, with exercises at the end of each chapter, this unrivalled treatment of the topic serves as an ideal introduction for graduate students across mathematics, computer science, and engineering, as well as a useful reference for researchers working in functional analysis or its applications.

'The purpose of this fine monograph is two-foldOn the one hand, the authors introduce a wide audience to the basic theory of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHS), on the other hand they present applications of this theory in a variety of areas of mathematics … the authors have succeeded in arranging a very readable modern presentation of RKHS and in conveying the relevance of this beautiful theory by many examples and applications.' Dirk Werner, Zentralblatt MATH
'Anyone looking for a nice introduction to this theory need look no further.' Jeff Ibbotson, MAA Reviews
