Metric entropies of various function spaces

Abstract

dc:description

The metric entropy of a set is a measure of its size in terms of the minimal number of sets of diameter not exceeding 2$\varepsilon$ which cover the set. We calculate the asymptotic order of the metric entropy as \varepsilon \to {\rm 0}\sp{+} for various function spaces. Some spaces we consider are the Sobolov spaces $L\sbsp{1}{p}$((0, 1)) for 1 $<$ $p \leq$ 2, and spaces of smooth functions on certain Cantor-like subsets of (0, 1).
