The set of these linear combinations is a normed vector space. This space can be completed and become a Hilbert space, called native space, which is of great importance in the last decade. The native space then contains some abstract elements which are not linear combinations of radial basis functions. The meaning of these abstract elements is not fully known. This paper presents some interpretations for the these elements. The native spaces are embedded into some well-known spaces. For example, the Sobolev-space is shown to be a native space. Since many differential equations have solutions in the Sobolev-space, we can therefore approximate the solutions by linear combinations of radial basis functions. Moreover, the famous question of the embedding of the native space into L2(Ω) is also solved by the author.展开更多
