Résumé

Although the literature on splines has grown vastly during the last decade [11], the study of polynomial splines on the circle seems to have suffered neglect. The first to study the subject in depth seem to be Ahlberg, Nilson and Walsh [1]. Almost at the same time I. J. Schoenberg [8] studied the problem of interpolation at the roots of unity by splines and its relation to quadrature on the circle. For discrete polynomial splines on the circle we refer to [5]. M. Golomb [3] also considers interpolation by a class of “spline” functions in the complex plane but his point of view is based on minimum norm properties of spline functions. Perhaps the reason for this neglect may be attributed to the fact that one can pass from the circle to the line by means of the transformation z → exp 2-πix. This changes the problem on the circle into periodic interpolation on the line with the difference that instead of interpolation by piecewise polynomial, we now consider piecewise exponential polynomials with complex exponents.
