The expansion of a given polynomial p into these polynomials provides bounds for range of p over V. Bounds for the range of a rational function over V can easily be obtained from the Bernstein expansions of the numerator and denominator polynomials of this function. In this paper it is shown that these bounds converge monotonically and linearly to the range of the rational function if the degree of the Bernstein expansion is elevated. If V is subdivided then the convergence is quadratic with respect to the maximum of the diameters of the subsimplices.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Hamadneh2018, author = {Hamadneh, Tareq}, title = {Bounding Polynomials and Rational Functions in the Tensorial and Simplicial Bernstein Forms}, pages = {153}, year = {2018}, abstract = {This thesis considers bounding functions for multivariate polynomials and rational functions over boxes and simplices.
