Description
The classical notion of Kolmogorov width of a set in a normed space measures the error of approximation of this set by n-dimensional linear subspaces. Here we consider the ''worst-case'' error of approximation.
If we take the ''average-case'' error instead, we arrive to the notion of average Kolmogorov width. We will discuss some new bounds for the average widths and some applications for the classical Kolmogorov widths.
