On estimates for orders of best $M$-term approximations of multivariate functions in anisotropic Lorentz–Karamata spaces

Abstract

In the paper we consider a well-known class of weakly varying functions and by these functions we define an anisotropic Lorentz-Karamata space of $2\pi$-periodic functions of many variables. Particular cases of these spaces are anisotropic Lorentz-Zygmund and Lorentz spaces. In the anisotropic Lorentz-Karamata space we define an analogue of Nikolskii-Besov space. The main aim of the paper is to find sharp orders of best $M$-term trigonometric approximation of functions from Nikolskii-Besov space by the norm of another anisotropic Lorentz-Karamata space. In the paper we establish order sharp two-sided estimates of best $M$-term trigonometric approximations for the functions from the Nikolskii-Besov space in the anisotropic Lorentz-Karamata space in various metrics. In order to prove an upper bound for $M$-term approximations, we employ an idea of the greedy algorithms proposed by V.N. Temlyakov and we modify it for the anisotropic Lorentz-Karamata space.
