It has been noticed that, the interrelation between the growth of an entire function in terms of [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII] and approximation error in [L.
Specific topics covered include polynomial multiplication over finite fields using field extensions and interpolation, fast and accurate Bessel function computation, certified and fast computation of supremum norms of approximation errors, and computation of decimal transcendental functions using the CORDIC algorithm.
Thus, it makes sense to consider convergence and the approximation error with respect to the averaged (quasi-)norm [MATHEMATICAL EXPRESSION NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII], which coincides with the (quasi-)norm in [L.
