Abstract
A general formulation of cutoff optimization methods in infinite-dimensional spaces is given. Various convergence aspects of these methods are proved under general assumptions. The concept of strong and weak convergence is studied. Estimates of convergence rates under certain assumptions are obtained. Applications to optimal control theory and approximation theory are illustrated.
