Summary

Offers a systematic description of the variational theory of splines in Hilbert spaces. This book discusses central aspects in the general form: existence, uniqueness, characterization, convergence, error estimations, vector and tensor hybrids in splines, and dimensional reducing (traces of splines onto manifolds).
