Glebov, A. N. On a language generated by smooth functions. (Russian) Zbl 1098.41012 Diskretn. Anal. Issled. Oper., Ser. 1 11, No. 1, 30-51 (2004). Summary: We apply a new approach to the study of continuous functions \(\varphi:[a,b]\to{\mathbf R}\) with bounded second derivative and their discrete analogues. We describe minimal prohibited subsequences in sequences of finite second differences generated by discrete analogues of functions with second derivative bounded from below or from above. Analogous sequences for classes of functions with second derivative bounded from two sides are investigated.
