1 Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 195 (2006) Block-based Thiele-like blending rational interpolation Qian-Jin Zhao a, Jieqing Tan b, a School of Computer & Information, Hefei University of Technology, Hefei , P.

China Received 15 August 2004; received in revised form 15 March 2005 Abstract Thiele-type continued fraction interpolation may be the favoured nonlinear interpolation in the sense that it is constructed by means of the inverse differences which can be calculated recursively and produce useful intermediate results. However, Thiele s interpolation is in fact a point-based interpolation by which we mean that a new interpolating continued fraction with one more degree of its numerator or denominator polynomial is obtained by adding a tail to the current one, or in other words, this can be reshaped simply by adding a new support point to the current set of support points once at a time. In this paper we introduce so-called block-based inverse differences to extend the point-based Thiele-type interpolation to the block-based Thiele-like blending rational interpolation. The construction process may be outlined as follows: first of all, divide the original set of support points into some subsets (blocks), then construct each block by using whatever interpolation means, linear or rational, and finally assemble these blocks by Thiele s method to shape the whole interpolation scheme. Clearly, many flexible rational interpolation schemes can be obtained in this case including the classical Thiele s continued fraction interpolation as its special case. As an extension, a bivariate analogy is also discussed and numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of our method Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

2 1. Introduction Q.-J. Zhao, J. Tan / Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 195 (2006) Denote by Π n the set of all real or complex polynomials p(x) with degree not exceeding n. Let S n ={(x i,f i ), i = 0, 1,...,n} be a set of support points, where the support abscissae x i,i= 0, 1,...,n, do not have to be distinct from one another; then an interpolating polynomial P n (x) in Π n can be uniquely determined by S n. Suppose the support ordinates f i,i = 0, 1,...,n, are the values of a given function f(x)which is defined on the set I(I X n ), here X n ={x i,i= 0, 1,...,n}; then Newton s polynomial P n (x) satisfying P n (x i ) = f(x i ), i = 0, 1,...,n, is of the form [6] P n (x) = f [x 0 ]+f [x 0,x 1 ](x x 0 ) + +f [x 0,x 1,...,x n ](x x 0 )(x x 1 ) (x x n 1 ), where f [x 0,x 1,...,x i ] are the divided differences of f(x) at support abscissae x 0,x 1,...,x i, which are defined by the recursion f [x i ]=f(x i ), f [x i,x j ]= f(x i) f(x j ), x i x j f [x i,...,x j,x k,x l ]= f [x i,...,x j,x l ] f[x i,...,x j,x k ]. x l x k We wish to mention that Newton interpolating polynomials have their nonlinear counterparts, the Thiele s interpolating continued fractions, which are constructed on the basis of inverse differences. Thiele s continued fraction interpolating the support points S n possesses the following form: where for i = 1, 2,...,n a i = [x 0,x 1,...,x i ] is the inverse difference of f(x)at x 0,x 1,...,x i, which can be computed recursively as follows: [x i ]=f(x i ), i = 0, 1,...,n, x i x j [x i,x j ]= f(x i ) f(x j ), [x i,x j,x k ]= [x i,...,x j,x k,x l ]= x k x j [x i,x k ] [x i,x j ], x l x k [x i,...,x j,x l ] [x i,...,x j,x k ]. It is easy to verify that R n (x) is a rational function with degrees of numerator and denominator polynomials bounded by [(n + 1)/2] and [n/2], respectively, where [x] denotes the greatest integer not exceeding x, and R n (x) satisfies R n (x i ) = f(x i ), i = 0, 1,...,n.
3 314 Q.-J. Zhao, J. Tan / Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 195 (2006) The above two interpolants are purely linear or purely nonlinear, respectively. Blending rational interpolants may be better than the purely linear or nonlinear ones when the approximated functions have both linear and nonlinear properties simultaneously. One of the authors [9] established an extraordinary variety of rational interpolants by applying Neville s algorithm to continued fractions. One may say that the Thiele-type interpolation is a point-based interpolation since a new interpolating continued fraction with one more degree of its numerator or denominator polynomial is obtained by adding a new support point to the current set of support points once at a time. For interpolation by Thiele-type continued fractions, we refer to [1 3,5,7,8]. To obtain flexible blending rational interpolation, we try to extend the point-based interpolation to the block-based one. The idea may be outlined as follows: first divide the original set of support points into some subsets (blocks), then construct each block by using whatever interpolation means, linear or rational, and finally assemble these blocks by Thiele s method to shape the whole interpolation scheme. 2. Block blending interpolation 2.1. Basic idea Suppose the set X n is divided into u + 1 subsets X s n (s = 0, 1,...,u): X s n ={x c s,x cs +1,...,x ds }, (s = 0, 1,...,u). The subsets may be achieved by reordering the interpolation points if necessary. Obviously, we have u (d s c s + 1) = n + 1. s=0 Let us consider the following function with the Thiele-like form: (1) where the polynomials ω s (x) = d s i=c s (x x i ), s = 0, 1,...,u 1, (2) and I s (x) (s = 0, 1,...,u) are polynomials or rational interpolating functions on the subsets X s n (s = 0, 1,...,u). If the above I s (x) (s = 0, 1,...,u)are chosen so that T(x i ) = f(x i ), x i X n, (3)
4 Q.-J. Zhao, J. Tan / Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 195 (2006) then T(x) defined by (1) and (2) is called the block-based Thiele-like blending rational interpolant to f(x) Block-based inverse differences Suppose X n I R, and let f(x)be a real function defined on I such that f(x i ) = f i, i = 0, 1,...,n. (4) We introduce the following notations: f 0 i = f i, i = 0, 1,...,n (5) and define for s = 1, 2,...,u fi s ω s 1 (x i ) = fi s 1 I s 1 (x i ), i = c s,c s + 1,...,n, (6) where I s (x) (s = 0, 1,...,u) are interpolating polynomials or rational interpolating functions on the subsets Xn s (s = 0, 1,...,u), which satisfy If all f s i I s (x i ) = f s i, i = c s,c s + 1,...,d s ; s = 0, 1,...,u. (7) Theorem 1. Let exist, then they are called the sth block-based inverse differences for the function f(x). T u (x) = I u (x) (8) and If all the block-based inverse differences f s i holds, then (i = c s,c s + 1,...,d s ; s = 1, 2,...,u)in (7) exist and T s+1 (x i ) = 0, (s = 0, 1,...,u 1; i = c s,c s + 1,...,d s ) (10) (9) T(x i ) = f i, i = 0, 1,...,n.
5 316 Q.-J. Zhao, J. Tan / Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 195 (2006) Proof. Suppose c s i d s,s= 0, 1,...,u.By (1), (5), (6), (7) and (10), we have The proof is completed Special cases Block-based Thiele-like blending rational interpolation can be obtained by means of the above recursive algorithm and includes the following interesting special cases. Case 1: If all the I s (x) (s =0, 1,...,u)are the interpolating polynomials P s (x) on the subsets X s n (s = 0, 1,...,u), then we obtain where P s (x) (s=0, 1,...,u)are the Newton interpolating polynomials on the subsets Xn s (s=0, 1,...,u). In a particular case when u = 0, the unique subset is the whole set X n, then the block-based Thiele-like blending rational interpolant degenerates into Newton interpolating polynomials on the whole set X n. Case 2: If all the I s (x) (s = 0, 1,...,u)are the Thiele-type interpolating continued fraction R s (x) on the subsets Xn s (s = 0, 1,...,u), then the block-based Thiele-like blending rational interpolant becomes a kind of composite rational interpolant on the whole set X n : (11) Especially, when u = n, each subset only contains one point, then all the block-based inverse differences become classical inverse differences and the block-based Thiele-like blending rational interpolant turns out to be the classical Thiele-type continued fraction interpolant on the whole set X n. If the whole set X n is a unique subset, i.e., u = 0, then we have T(x)= R 0 (x), (13) where R 0 (x) is the Thiele-type interpolating continued fraction on the whole set X n, and the block-based Thiele-like blending rational interpolant degenerates into the classical Thiele-type interpolating continued fraction on the whole set X n. (12)
6 2.4. Error estimation Q.-J. Zhao, J. Tan / Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 195 (2006) We now turn to a discussion of the error in the approximation of a function f(x)by its block-based Thiele-like blending rational interpolants. Theorem 2. Suppose [a,b] is the smallest interval containing X n ={x 0,x 1,...,x n } and f(x)is differentiable in [a,b] up to (n + 1) times; let then for each x [a,b] there exists a point ξ (a, b) such that f(x) T(x)= ω(x) Q(x) where ω(x) = n i=0 (x x i ). (n+1) [f (x)q(x) P(x)] x=ξ (n + 1)! (14), (15) Proof. Let E(x) = f (x)q(x) P(x); then it follows from Theorem 1 and (14) E(x i ) = 0, (i = 0, 1,...,n); making use of the Newton interpolation formula (see [6,11]), we have E(x) = n E[x 0,x 1,...,x i ](x x 0 ) (x x i 1 ) i=0 + (x x 0 ) (x x n ) E(n+1) (ξ) (n + 1)! = ω(x)e(n+1) (ξ), (n + 1)! where ξ (a, b). It is easy to verify that f(x) T(x)= E(x) Q(x) = ω(x)e(n+1) (ξ) Q(x)(n + 1)! = ω(x) Q(x) [f (x)q(x) P(x)] (n+1) x=ξ. (n + 1)! The proof is completed.
7 318 Q.-J. Zhao, J. Tan / Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 195 (2006) Numerical examples In this section, we present a simple example to show the flexibility and the effectiveness of our method. Example 1. Let X 5 ={0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, {f 0,f 1,f 2,f 3,f 4,f 5 }={0, 1, 4, 1, 2, 2}. According to the block-based Thiele-like blending rational interpolation method illustrated in the preceding sections, one can yield the following schemes for interpolants. Scheme 1: From case 1 in the preceding Section 2.3 and considering that the whole set X 5 is a unique subset, we have T(x)= x + x(x 1) 5 x(x 1)(x 2) x(x 1)(x 2)(x 3) x(x 1)(x 2)(x 3)(x 4) = x x x x x5. Scheme 2: We divide X 5 into X5 0 ={0, 1, 2} and X1 5 ={3, 4, 5}. Let both I 0 (x) and I 1 (x) be Newton interpolating polynomials; then we have T(x)= x + x(x 1) x(x 1)(x 2) = 1380x x2 1493x x x + 187x (x 3) 690 (x 3)(x 4) Scheme 3: We divide X 5 into X5 0 ={0, 1, 2} and X1 5 ={3, 4, 5}. Let I 0 (x) be a Newton interpolating polynomial and I 1 (x) be a Thiele-type interpolating continued fraction; then we have x(x 1)(x 2) T(x)= x + x(x 1) x (x 4) 231 = 262x + 367x2 146x x x Scheme 4: We divide X 5 into X5 0 ={3, 4, 5} and X1 5 ={0, 1, 2}. Let I 0 (x) be a Thiele-type interpolating continued fraction and I 1 (x) be a Newton interpolating polynomial; then we have x 3 (x 3)(x 4)(x 5) T(x)= (x 4) x x(x 1) = x x x x x x x 3. Scheme 5: We divide X 5 into X5 0 ={3, 4, 5} and X1 5 ={0, 1, 2}.
8 Q.-J. Zhao, J. Tan / Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 195 (2006) Let both I 0 (x) and I 1 (x) be Thiele-type interpolating continued fractions; then we have x 3 (x 3)(x 4)(x 5) T(x)= (x 4) x (x 1) = x x x x x x x 2. Scheme 6: From case 2 in the preceding Section 2.3 and considering the whole set X 5 as a unique subset, we have 3. Multivariate case 3.1. Basic idea The block-based Thiele-like blending rational interpolation method can be generalized to the multivariate case. Given a set of two-dimensional points Π mn ={(x i,y j ) i = 0, 1,...,m; j = 0, 1,...,n}, suppose that f(x,y) is defined on D Π mn. We divide Π mn into (u + 1) (v + 1) subsets: Π st mn ={(x i,y j ) c s i d s ; h t j r t }.(s = 0, 1,...,u; t = 0, 1,...,v). Let us consider the following function with a block-based bivariate Thiele-like form: where for s = 0, 1,...,u (16) the polynomials ω s (x) = ω t (y) = d s i=c s (x x i ), s = 0, 1,...,u 1, (18) r t j=h t (y y j ), t = 0, 1,...,v 1, (19) (17)
9 320 Q.-J. Zhao, J. Tan / Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 195 (2006) and the I st (x, y) (s = 0, 1,...,u; t = 0, 1,...,v)are bivariate polynomials or rational interpolants on the subsets Π st mn. To obtain a block-based bivariate Thiele-like blending rational interpolant on the whole set Π mn, the I st (x, y) (s = 0, 1,...,u; t = 0, 1,...,v)have to be determined so that function (16) satisfies: T(x i,y j ) = f(x i,y j ) = f ij, i = 0, 1,...,m; j = 0, 1,...,n. (20) 3.2. Block-based bivariate partial inverse differences Let Π mn D R 2, and let f(x,y) be a real function defined on D such that f(x i,y j ) = f ij, i = 0, 1,...,m; j = 0, 1,...,n. (21) We introduce the following notations: f 00 ij = f ij, i = 0, 1,...,m; j = 0, 1,...,n (22) for t = 1, 2,...,v f 0t ij = ω t 1 (y j ) f 0,t 1 ij I 0,t 1 (x i,y j ), (j = h t,h t + 1,...,n; i = 0, 1,...,m), (23) where I 0t (x, y) (t =0, 1,...,v)are bivariate polynomials or rational interpolants on subsets Π 0t mn, namely I 0t (x i,y j ) = f 0t ij, (c 0 i d 0,h t j r t,t = 0, 1,...,v) (24) and for s = 1, 2,...,u f s0 ij = ω s 1 (x i ) f s 1,0 ij Z s 1 (x i,y j ), (i = c s,c s + 1,...,m; j = 0, 1,...,n), (25) when t = 1, 2,...,v f st ij = ω t 1 (y j ) f s,t 1 ij I s,t 1 (x i,y j ) (j = h t,h t + 1,...,n; i = c s,c s + 1,...,m), (26) where I st (x, y) (s = 1, 2,...,u; t = 0, 1,...,v) are bivariate polynomials or rational interpolants on subsets Π st mn, namely I st (x i,y j ) = f st ij, (c s i d s,h t j r t ; s = 1, 2,...,u; t = 0, 1,...,v). (27) If all fij st exist, then f st ij f(x,y). are called the (s, t)th block-based bivariate partial inverse differences for function
10 Theorem 3. Let Q.-J. Zhao, J. Tan / Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 195 (2006) Z sv (x, y) = I sv (x, y), (s = 0, 1,...,u) (28) and T u (x, y) = Z u (x, y), (30) (29) (31) If all the block-based bivariate partial inverse differences fij st (i = c s,c s + 1,...,m; j = h t,h t + 1,...,n; s = 0, 1,...,u; t = 0, 1,...,v)exist, (24) and (27) hold, and then Z s,t+1 (x, y j ) = 0, (s = 0, 1,...,u; t = 0, 1,...,v 1; j = h t,h t + 1,...,r t ) (32) T s+1 (x i,y) = 0, (s = 0, 1,...,u; i = c s,c s + 1,...,d s ); (33) T(x i,y j ) = f ij, i = 0, 1,...,m; j = 0, 1,...,n. Proof. Let c s i d s, and h t j r t. From (22) (27), (32) and (33), we have and
11 322 Q.-J. Zhao, J. Tan / Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 195 (2006) It is easy to verify that The proof is completed Error estimation We now turn to a discussion of the error in the approximation of a function f(x,y) by its block-based bivariate Thiele-like blending rational interpolants. It is easy to verify the following Theorem 4 in terms of a bivariate Newton interpolation formula (see [11]). Theorem 4. Suppose D =[a,b] [c, d] is a rectangular domain containing Π mn and f(x,y) C (m+n+2) (D). Let be a block-based bivariate Thiele-like blending rational interpolant on Π mn ; then (x, y) D, we have f(x,y) T (x,y) = ω(x) Q(x, y) + ω (y) Q(x, y) with ξ, ξ (a, b) and η, η (c, d), where m+1 [fq P ] x m+1 x=ξ (m + 1)! n+1 ω(x) = (x x 0 )(x x 1 ) (x x m ), ω (y) = (y y 0 )(y y 1 ) (y y n ) Numerical examples [fq P ] y n+1 y=η ω(x)ω (y) (n+1)! Q(x, y) n+m+2 [fq P ] x m+1 y n+1 x=ξ,y=η, (m+1)!(n+1)! In this section, we present a simple example to show how the algorithms are implemented and how flexible our method is.
12 Q.-J. Zhao, J. Tan / Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 195 (2006) Example 2. Suppose the interpolating points and the prescribed values of f(x,y)at the support abscissae (x i,y j ) are given in the following table: y 0 = 0 y 1 = 1 y 2 = 2 x 0 = x 1 = x 2 = For convenience, we merely present a scheme. Let c 0 = 0, d 0 = 1, c 1 = d 1 = 2; h 0 = 0, r 0 = 1, h 1 = r 1 = 2, which means that Π 22 is divided into the following 4 subsets Π 00 22, Π01 22, Π10 22 and Π11 22 : (0, 0) (0, 1) (0, 2) ( 1, 0) ( 1, 1) ( 1, 2) ( 2, 0) ( 2, 1) ( 2, 2) Suppose I 00 (x, y) is a bivariate Newton interpolating polynomial P 00 (x, y) on the subset Π ; then we have P 00 (x, y) = 2 10x + 4y + 10xy. By (23), we have f = 1 7, f01 12 = 1 6, f01 22 = 1 4. Suppose I 01 (x, y) is a bivariate Newton interpolating polynomial P 01 (x, y) on the subset Π ; then we have P 01 (x, y) = 1 7 x 42. By (17), we have Z 0 (x, y) = 2 10x + 4y + 10xy + It follows from (25) that f20 10 = 1 11, f10 21 = 1, f10 22 = 4 5. y(y 1) x. Suppose I 10 (x, y) is a bivariate Newton interpolating polynomial P 10 (x, y) on the subset Π ; then we have P 10 (x, y) = y 11.
13 324 Q.-J. Zhao, J. Tan / Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics 195 (2006) It follows from (26) that f22 11 = Suppose I 11 (x, y) is a bivariate Newton interpolating polynomial P 11 (x, y) on the subset Π ; then we have P 11 (x, y) = From (16) and (17), we finally obtain T (x,y) = 2 10x + 4y + 10xy + y(y 1) 1 7 x 42 + x(x + 1) y 11 + y(y 1) Conclusion and future work This paper presents a new kind of block-based Thiele-like blending rational interpolants which can be obtained by Thiele s method. Clearly, our method provides us with many flexible interpolation schemes for choices which include the classical Thiele-type continued fraction interpolant as its special case. We give a brief discussion of a block-based Thiele-like blending rational interpolation algorithm and error estimation. A bivariate analogy is also discussed. Through numerical examples, we show the flexibility and effectiveness of the method. Our future work will be focused on the following aspects: How to divide the set X n and how to choose an interpolation method on every subset to obtain a better approximation. How to generalize the above block-based interpolation to other formations to obtain a better approximation. Applications in image processing. We conclude this paper by pointing out that it is not difficult to generalize the block-based Thiele-like blending rational interpolation method to a vector-valued case or a matrix-valued case [4,10,12].
