Abstract

We find the decay orders of the Kolmogorov widths of some Besov classes related to \(W^1_1\) (the behavior of the widths for the class \(W^1_1\) remains unknown): \(d_n(B^1_{1,\theta}[0,1],L_q[0,1])\asymp n^{-1/2}\log^{\max\{1/2,1-1/\theta\}}n\) for \(2<q<\infty\) and \(1\le\theta\le\infty\). The proof relies on the lower bound for the width of a product of octahedra in a special norm (maximum of two weighted \(\ell_{q_i}\) norms). This bound generalizes B. S. Kashin’s theorem on the widths of octahedra in \(\ell_q\).
